Final Jeopardy! Weathering, Erosion, and Deposition Make your bid!!

There are four main natural agents (causes) of erosion. Name 3 of them.

You must have 3 of the following: 1. water (rainfall and rivers can carry sediment to other places) 2. wind (wind can pick up and move small rock material) 3. glaciers (glaciers slowly move the sediment on the ocean floor) 4. gravity (gravity can cause mass movement)
