Detailed Solution

Breaking down rocks into smaller pieces by natural forces is called weathering.
The soil is formed by the breakdown of rocks by the action of natural entities like the wind, water and climate. This process is known as weathering. It produces small particles of different materials. These small weathered particles form soil which gets deposited at different surfaces.  Weathering is a slow process which takes thousands of years.
