Which of the following weathering processes involves the constant freezing and thawing of water?
A. unloading
B. exfoliation
C. frost wedging
D. spheroidal weathering
Weathering Processes involvess the Constant Freezing and Thawing of Water - Option C
Frost wedging is a kind of mechanical weathering created via frost and iceberg. Water expands while it freezes, and reiterated series of chilling and melting gradually reduce the fundamental probity of acceptable and fractured rocks. Over time, frost wedging increases small breaks toward large holes. The holes ultimately divided the rock completely into pieces.
Frost wedging is a gradual cyclical process of water freezing. Throughout the daylight, the fluid water heated by the sun streams into tiny holes, fissures and spaces ranges in rock.
