Which soil outcome results when differential weathering occurs?

💡 Explanation

Differential weathering causes zones of weakened rock which erode faster. Physical breakup and varying chemical reaction rates lead to inconsistent particle sizes. Layers form because the removal exposes underlying deposits rather than forming an entire layer evenly.
