Understand the Problem

The text appears to discuss concepts related to geotechnical engineering, specifically the processes of soil formation and rock weathering.

Answer

Pedogenesis involves physical and chemical weathering of rocks.

The process of soil formation is called pedogenesis and involves weathering, both physically and chemically.

Answer for screen readers

The process of soil formation is called pedogenesis and involves weathering, both physically and chemically.

More Information

Pedogenesis is pivotal in geotechnical engineering, influencing soil properties critical for construction and agricultural practices.

Tips

A common mistake is to confuse erosion (transport) with weathering (breakdown). Both are distinct processes.
