What change will a pebble usually undergo when it is transported a great distance by streams?
It will become rounded and its volume will decrease.
erosion of continental rocks
erosion
unsorted loose gravel found in hills
sediment observed at the bottom of a cliff
gravity
glaciers
a decrease in mass and number of angular edges
A sediment particle transported by a stream over a long period of time will most likely show
