Just like in weathering, there are different agents that cause erosion. These are water, wind, animals and
humans.
Water has force.As water flows, its force transports rock and soil particles from one place to another.
Wind carries light particles of rocks and soil, transporting and depositing them into another place. The
stronger the wind blows, the faster and farther is the erosion that is causes.Erosion by wind contributes a lot in
shaping the earth's surface. An example of this is the formation of sand dunes.
Key Concepts / Understandings
Animals also contribute to the transportation of sediments.When burrowing animals dig the
to be Developed
ground,some rock and soil particles stick to their bodies.As they move from place to place, they carry such
particles, too.
Humans although erosion is a natural phenomenon, humans have major contributions to the rate of soil
erosion in the environment. Human activities like gardening , quarrying,huge volumes of soil and sand
transported when they are used in construction of houses and other infrastructure.

Abstraction
Questions:
A. What are the agents of soil erosion?
B. Describe how each agent causes soil erosion?
Possible Answer:
A. The agents of soil erosion are water , wind, animals, and human activities.
B. Humans although erosion is a natural phenomenon, humans have major contributions
to the rate of soil erosion in the environment. Human activities like gardening ,
quarrying,huge volumes of soil and sand transported when they are used in construction
of houses and other infrastructure.
Animals also contribute to the transportation of sediments.When burrowing animals
dig the ground,some rock and soil particles stick to their bodies.As they move from place to
place, they carry such particles, too.
Water has force.As water flows, its force transports rock and soil particles from one place to

An example of this is the formation of sand dunes.
