When does transportation of rock material occur in weathering?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Generally it does not occur

Correct answer: C, generally it does not occur. Weathering is the breakdown, disintegration, or chemical alteration of rock at or near the place where the rock is found. The material normally remains in place after weathering. Transportation is a different step: running water, wind, glaciers, waves, or gravity carry the loosened material away. That carrying process is associated with erosion and movement, not with weathering itself. A is wrong because weathering does not always move material a long distance. B is wrong because weathering can occur on land and in many environments, not only in the sea. D is wrong because glaciers are only one possible transporting agent, and weathering is not limited to glacial regions. A useful warning is that weathering and erosion often work together, but they are not identical: weathering prepares the material, while erosion transports it.
