These are the features the table must have: Column 1) Type of Physical Weathering; Column 2) What that type of weathering does; Column 3) Sketch that type of physical weathering.
Column 1: Type of Physical Weathering
1) Freeze-Thaw Weathering
2) Exfoliation
3) Biological Weathering
4) Salt Crystal Growth
5) Abrasion
Column 2: What that type of weathering does
1) Freeze-Thaw Weathering: Repeated freezing and thawing of water in rock fractures causes the expansion and contraction of ice, leading to the breakup of the rock.
2) Exfoliation: Large slabs of outer rock layers peel off due to the release of pressure from the reduction of overlying rock layers.
3) Biological Weathering: The erosive action of plants, animals, and microorganisms on rocks, leading to their breakdown and disintegration.
4) Salt Crystal Growth: The growth of salt crystals within rock pores or fractures leads to the expansion and eventual fragmentation of the rock.
5) Abrasion: The wearing down and smoothing of rocks and minerals due to the physical scraping or rubbing action of other materials.
Column 3: Sketch that type of physical weathering
1) Freeze-Thaw Weathering:
[Insert sketch of a rock with cracks and ice expanding within them]
2) Exfoliation:
[Insert sketch of a rock with outer layers peeling off]
3) Biological Weathering:
[Insert sketch showcasing roots or organisms breaking down rocks]
4) Salt Crystal Growth:
[Insert sketch of salt crystals growing within rock fractures]
5) Abrasion:
[Insert sketch of rocks being rubbed together, resulting in a smooth surface]

To create a table with the specified features, you can follow these steps:
1. Open a spreadsheet program like Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets.
2. Create a new sheet or select an existing sheet where you want to create the table.
3. In the first row of the sheet, enter the column headers: "Type of Physical Weathering," "What that type of weathering does," and "Sketch that type of physical weathering." Each header should be entered in a separate cell of the first row.
4. Starting from the second row, add the rows for each type of physical weathering you want to include in the table.
5. In the "Type of Physical Weathering" column, enter the different types of physical weathering, such as frost wedging, thermal expansion, salt crystallization, or exfoliation.
6. In the "What that type of weathering does" column, provide a brief description of what each type of weathering does. For example, you can describe how frost wedging occurs when water freezes and expands in cracks, causing the rocks to break apart.
7. In the "Sketch that type of physical weathering" column, you can either draw sketches directly in the spreadsheet program using its drawing tools or insert images of sketches if you already have them.
8. Repeat steps 5 to 7 for each additional type of physical weathering you want to include in the table.
9. Format the table as desired, applying borders, adjusting column width, or changing font styles to make it visually appealing and easy to read.
10. Save the document with a suitable name and share it if needed.
These steps should help you create a table with the required features of Column 1) Type of Physical Weathering, Column 2) What that type of weathering does, and Column 3) Sketch that type of physical weathering.
