Which statement best describes the processes of weathering and erosion?

Weathering and erosion are directly responsible for the breakdown of any type of rock into smaller particles and the carrying away of the loose sediments.

Weathering and erosion are directly responsible for depositing loose sediments on the bottom of the ocean, forming layers of sediment.

Weathering and erosion are directly responsible for the amount of water in a river that transports sediments to the sea.
