Question

In which one of the following regions the chemical weathering process is more dominant than the mechanical process?

Options

• Humid region

• Limestone region

• Arid region

• Glacier region

Answer 1

Humid region

Explanation:

In humid regions, the presence of abundant moisture and warm temperatures enhances chemical reactions that break down rocks. This makes chemical weathering more dominant here compared to mechanical weathering, which is more active in dry or cold regions.
