Question
Block Disintegration

Answer

  • Sometimes both temperature and water are responsible for weathering.
  • The difference in temperature cause contraction and expansion of minerals in the rocks. This leads to widening theoints or cracks in the rocks.
  • Water accumulates in such wideouts and big blocks of rocks separate from each other.
  • This is called Block Disintegration.
