What will be an ideal response?


Water causes erosion in two ways. (1) The impact of falling raindrops loosens surface soil particles—splash erosion.
(2) The more damaging effect is that of running water. As runoff moves across the soil surface, soil particles are
picked up by the water and carried away, only to be deposited elsewhere
