    The Edwards Plateau/Llano Uplift eco-region is

located in central Texas. An unusual landform in this eco-region is a dome of granite called Enchanted Rock. The Enchanted Rock experiences a type of physical weathering called exfoliation. Exfoliation is a process in which the surface of rock weathers by peeling into sheets instead of breaking down into small sediments. This region is often referred to as Central Texas or The Hill Country. This area is considered the highest risk area in the country for flash floods. Weathered soil and rock from the eco-region is eroded and deposited in the upper South Texas Plains Eco-region.

The Trans Pecos eco-region includes the Chihuahuan Desert. The Guadalupe Mountains and the Davis Mountains are located in this eco-region, making it the most mountainous area of Texas. In general, soil in this region is eroded due to the decline of grasslands. Big Bend National Park is also located in this eco-region. Flash-flooding and rapid runoff are agents of erosion in the park. Erosion of the limestone cliffs takes place because of acid rain

Possum Adaptations- they act dead so predators don't

eat them. Diet-They are omnivores they eat frogs, snakes,

fruits, nuts, mice, beetles, and cockroaches. Jackrabbits Adaptations-They live in tall grass, thick bush

piles, holes, and dens to hide from predators. Diet-They are herbiovors and in the summer

they eat a variety of green plants ,and in the winter they eat dried woody plants.

You could help all the flooding in the areas around them. So there wouldn’t be any floods that could damage the areas .
