A huge, jagged rock sits atop a windy cliffside. Over a period of many years, how will the rock MOST LIKELY change? It will become larger and smoother.

                                 or

Option (D)

Explanation:

Wind erosion will take place extensively as the cliff-side is exposed on the outcrop. Due to the wind erosion, the large, jagged rock will undergo the process of weathering where the softer parts of the rock will be eroded much rapidly in comparison to the harder parts, as a result of which the overall size of the rock will decrease and the surface will be uneven and somewhat rough. This will take place over a due course of time. The main agent that is responsible for erosion is the wind.

Thus, the given rock will become smaller and less smooth after a definite period of time.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

Hope this helps Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas :D
