Explain the difference between Modern and Traditional Biotechnology. List one effect of Modern Biotechnology. Write one product of Traditional Biotechnology. Describe the process of rock weathering. What type of weathering is described above?

The description details how rocks heat up and expand during the day, then cool down and contract at night. This repeated expansion and contraction causes the rocks to crack and break apart.

This process is a form of physical weathering (also known as mechanical weathering), specifically due to thermal stress or thermal expansion and contraction.

The type of weathering described is $\text{Physical weathering}$.
