Endogenic and exogenic forces

Q: Which process is more affected by solar energy?

Weathering Temperature and weather changes affect weathering. Exam tip: connect solar energy with exogenic actions.

Q: What is one major work of exogenic forces?

Wearing down and leveling the surface Exogenic forces wear down high areas and balance the surface. Exam tip: connect wearing down with exogenic forces.

Q: Which is an example of a sudden endogenic event?

Earthquake An earthquake is a sudden endogenic event caused by tectonic activity within the Earth. In contrast, river deposition, wind transportation of sand, and chemical weathering are exogenic processes that generally modify landforms gradually. Exam tip: remember earthquakes and volcanic eruptions as sudden events produced by internal forces.

Q: Which is a good example of a slow exogenic process?

Weathering Weathering is a slow exogenic process in which rocks break down or decompose in place because of temperature changes, water, air, and living organisms. Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and crustal folding are endogenic processes caused by forces within the Earth. Exam tip: slow physical or chemical breakdown of rocks at the surface indicates weathering.

Q: Plate movement is related to which type of energy?

Internal energy of the Earth Plate movement is influenced by internal energy and convection. Exam tip: consider plate movement endogenic.

Q: If a river deposits sediments when it reaches the sea, which process is it?

Deposition Deposition is the accumulation of sediments by a river. Exam tip: connect deltas near the sea with this process.

Q: Which statement is correct for endogenic forces?

They originate inside the Earth The energy of endogenic forces comes from the interior. Exam tip: use origin from within as the main clue.

Q: Which statement is correct for exogenic forces?

They act externally on the Earth's surface Exogenic forces are linked with water, wind, glaciers, and gravity on the surface. Exam tip: identify surface action as exogenic.

Q: What is it called when a river cuts and carries rock material away?

Erosion When a river cuts and carries material away, it is erosion. Exam tip: look for both cutting and carrying clues.

Q: Formation of a sand dune by wind is related to which process?

Deposition When wind deposits sand, a sand dune forms. Exam tip: identify deposition from wind and accumulation.
