Complete the concept map below to evaluate your understanding of the interactions between the Earth system and weathering and soils. Label as many interactions as you can, using information from this chapter. Place the correct phrase where it should appear on the concept map. Organisms break apart rocks. CO, combines with water to form acid rain Soils provide nutrients for plants Water freezes in cracks to cause wedging Some minerals dissolve in water, dissolution forms caves. Biological weathering processes occur quickly in the presence of oxygen Atmosphere Geosphere Dust storms block incoming sunlight Solar radiation dries soils. Oxygen in air reacts with iron in rocks to form iron oxides Exosphere Chemical weathering slower where evaporation is high.. Plants take up water from soil. Plant roots release carbon dioxide Hydrosphere Biosphere Pollution can increase acidity of rain Winds carry fine-grained material eroded from soils
