Which of the following statements describes how a rock CHANGES after it has been in a RIVER like the Chattahoochee for a long time?
magma rising up from the mantle at a divergent boundary.
both continental and oceanic crust.
The edges of the rock are worn away, so the rock becomes smoother.
rocks + waves = sand
