Inselberg is a landform associated with which type of erosion?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Resistant remnant left after greater erosion of surrounding weaker rocks in desert areas
An inselberg is an isolated, steep-sided residual hill that stands above a relatively level surface. In arid and semi-arid regions, differential weathering and erosion remove weaker surrounding rocks more rapidly, while a resistant rock mass remains as the inselberg. Thus option A is correct. A beach, glacial mound, and distributary network are depositional or coastal forms, not residual desert hills.
