Geography

Endogenic and exogenic forces

In this Class 11 Geography topic from the chapter Geomorphic Processes, students learn how endogenic forces originate within the Earth and shape its surface through tectonic movements, folding, faulting, earthquakes, and volcanism. They also examine exogenic forces acting at or near the surface, including weathering, erosion, mass movement, and deposition. The topic explains how these internal and external processes interact over time to create and modify landforms such as mountains, valleys, plains, and plateaus.
