How is an inselberg understood?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A resistant rocky hill left in a planed surface
The governing concept is differential erosion. In a formerly elevated or broadly planed landscape, softer surrounding rocks are worn away more rapidly, while a resistant mass remains standing as an isolated rocky hill. This residual feature is called an inselberg, so option C is correct. Option A describes a glacial ridge, option B an oxbow lake, and option D a coastal depositional bar.
