Explanation / Answer

We need to fill in the blanks with the words available in the box.

As rocks break from physical weathering, more spaces are available for biologic processes to occur.

Biological weathering includes macroscopic processes we can observe directly and microscopic processes we cannot.

Knowledge of the animals and plants in a region would provide information useful for evaluating the likelihood of macroscopic biologic wedging. (Macroscopic weathering is caused by animals or plants)

Knowledge of the types and amounts of bacteria in the soils would help with the evaluation of microscopic weathering. (Microscopic weathering is caused by organisms that cannot be seen by the naked eye)

Likewise, as rocks dissolve due to chemical weathering they become weaker and more susceptible to other forms of weathering.

This occurs when roots invade cracks, expanding as they grow.
