explain how the texture of a rock surface affects how fast it physically weathers by water.

It would be smooth and the texture would be good through rain

Okay, so my best guess, is that the smoother the rock, the slower the erosion by water would occur, and vice versa, the rougher the rock's service, the faster the it erodes.

Explanation:

When the rock's texture is smooth, there is less friction against the water, therefor, not allowing the water currents to "grab" at the rocks surface (it being smooth and not having any ares for the water to work against). When the rock is jagged and rough, the water has more friction against the rock, and can "grab" and break off the jagged edges.

Hopefully that'll help ya!

estuaries are the partially enclosed coastal bodies of brackish water formed at the mouth of sea where river meets an ocean. it is a transition zone between river and sea water so estuaries are influenced to both marine environment such as tides, waves and to riverine such as flow of fresh water and sediments. the mixing of sea and fresh water provide high level of nutrients, making estuaries a high product habitats.

many estuaries suffers degradation from a variety of human activities like erosion from deforestation, overgrazing, overfishing, drainage and eutrophication.

so from the above statement answers will be

1. false as estuaries are formed due to both brackish and freshwater.

2.true, due to high productivity estuaries are breeding ground for many marine species.

3. direct and indirect activities of man that contribute to pollution and deposition of sediments.
