Which action is dominant in solution erosion?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Dissolving of soluble minerals in water
Solution erosion is a chemical process in which water dissolves soluble minerals from rock. It is especially significant where slightly acidic rainwater or groundwater reacts with limestone and other soluble rocks, gradually enlarging joints, conduits, caves, and underground drainage passages. Particle collision describes attrition, sand bouncing is saltation, and ice-deposited debris is glacial deposition. Hence option A is the only correct answer.
