The best evidence that erosion has taken place would be provided by
a decrease in mass and number of angular edges
It will become rounded and its volume will decrease.
Boulders were transported to the area by ice.

erosion of continental rocks
moisture evaporating from an ocean
sediment observed at the bottom of a cliff

The bedrock at a certain location is deeply scratched, and in some places is covered by a layer of unsorted sediment. Which erosional agent was probably responsible for these features?
a decrease in mass and number of angular edges
It will become rounded and its volume will decrease.
Boulders were transported to the area by ice.

On the Earth's surface, transported materials are more common than residual materials. This condition is mainly the result of
a decrease in mass and number of angular edges
It will become rounded and its volume will decrease.
