This is science what are some similarities between ice wedging and plant root growth in a rock?

When ice freezes it expands. And when roots grow, they also expand. So when water pools in a crack and freezes, it forces that rock apart just a little bit. And over the course of decades, the process can repeat so many times that it splits the rock in two. The same goes for roots. They fit in a little space at one point but expand continuously and can eventually split the rock.

Ithink that the use of creativity in the sciences entails that one produce something out of nothing or from another thing. with this, i think that the he wrote down his results as four parts of the atomic theory is the manifestation of the  creativity of john dalton.
