Answer 1

The two correct answers that describe the Grand Canyon one million years from today are:

1. It will become deeper, as the Colorado River continues to carve into the rock.
2. It will become wider, as the edges of the canyon are weathered and eroded.

These processes are a result of the river's continuous erosion and the effects of weathering on the canyon walls over time.
