Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Certain types of weathering are more common in certain environments than others.

This is very true.

  • Weathering is the physical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soils.
  • Different forms of weathering are dictated by their geographies on the earth surface.
  • Ice or frost wedging is only possible in temperate or polar regions of the world.
  • Exfoliation is pronounced around the tropical region as series of thermal expansion and contraction is involved.
  • Alternate freezing and thawing which expands cracks is also a geographical phenomenon.
