  1. 4. when slightly acidic water from precipitation seeps into the ground,it combines with carbon dixodie in the soil.
  2. 8. soil moved from their original location.
  3. 10. a mechanical weathering process in which outer rock layers are stripped away.
  4. 11. the process by which rocks and minerals undergo changesin their compostion.
  5. 13. devlopes when running water cuts small channels into the side of a slope.
  6. 14. chemical reaction of oxgyen with other subtances.

Down
  1. 1. a type of weathering in which rocks and minerals break down into smaller pieces.
  2. 2. after the rock and soil are transported, somtimes thousands of kilometers away from their soucre they are dropped in another location.
  3. 3. when a channel becomes deep and wide, rill erosion envolves.
  4. 5. removal of weathered rock and soil from its original location.
  5. 6. a layer of soil that differs in color and texture from the layers above or below.
  6. 7. a cross section of soil you see if you dig into the ground. it shows different layer of soil.
  7. 9. the process in which materials on or near earth's surface break down and change.
  8. 12. soil formed in its present location from the bedrock beneath.
