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.

  4. Solar energy and gravitational effect
View options
  1. Epeirogenic movement
  2. Glacial abrasion
  3. River meandering
  4. Marine weathering
View options
  1. It completely dissolves rock layers
  2. It bends rock layers into upfolded and downfolded structures
  3. It forms only sand dunes
  4. It only widens river courses
View options
  1. Because they are driven only by solar heat
  2. Because they only form soil
  3. Because their energy comes from Earth's interior and effects may be rapid
  4. Because they only form river plains
View options
  1. When rock is only dissolving chemically
  2. When organic matter is increasing in soil
  3. When a river is only depositing material
  4. When rock layers break and move due to tension or compression
View options
  1. Because they build relief but may also cause destructive events like earthquakes
  2. Because they never change landforms
  3. Because they only remove soil
  4. Because they originate from solar radiation
View options
  1. They operate only through radioactive heat inside Earth
  2. They change landforms at the surface through weathering erosion transportation and deposition
  3. They operate only below sea level
  4. They are produced only by seismic waves
View options
  1. It only determines earthquake depth
  2. It only changes magma composition
  3. It affects weathering and erosion through temperature and rainfall
  4. It stops all endogenic forces
View options
  1. Volcanic eruption
  2. Folding
  3. Wave erosion
  4. Mass movement
View options
  1. A changing balance between uplift and denudation over time
  2. All landforms remaining permanently identical
  3. Only one force always remaining effective
  4. Landforms forming only in deserts
View options
  1. Sand blown by wind and forming a dune
  2. River deep incision after crustal uplift
  3. Formation of humus in soil
  4. Deposition of salt from seawater
View options
  1. Because it produces seismic waves
  2. Because it cools magma
  3. Because removed material is deposited elsewhere to form new landforms
  4. Because it always raises mountains
View options
  1. Epeirogenic occurs only in rivers and orogenic only in seas
  2. Epeirogenic is chemical and orogenic is biological
  3. Both are completely identical processes
  4. Epeirogenic is broad vertical movement while orogenic is mostly linked with compression and folding
View options
  1. Endogenic force because lava comes from inside Earth
  2. Exogenic force because lava forms from rainfall
  3. Only biological force because plants make rocks
  4. Only wind force because wind deposits lava
View options
  1. When only their seismic focus is the same
  2. When joints cracks and climatic conditions differ
  3. When they are all at the same elevation
  4. When they contain no minerals
View options
  1. Focus is on surface and epicentre is in outer space
  2. Both are always at a volcanic crater
  3. Focus is the point inside where energy is released and epicentre is the surface point above it
  4. Both form only in river beds
View options
  1. Chemical weathering
  2. Physical weathering
  3. Biological weathering
  4. Erosion
View options
  1. Erosion may intensify because slope and energy increase
  2. All rivers will stop immediately
  3. Weathering will completely end
  4. Effect of gravity will become zero
View options
  1. Weathering weakens material and gravity may move it downslope
  2. Mass movement occurs only due to sea waves
  3. Weathering is always an endogenic force
  4. Both processes occur only in Earth's core
View options
  1. When continuous crustal uplift is also occurring in the area
  2. When water is present in the river
  3. When the river course is long
  4. When vegetation is less in the valley
View options
  1. Because it is driven only by rainfall
  2. Because it is related to Earth's internal thermal and material flow
  3. Because it is controlled only by wind direction
  4. Because it is produced only by organisms
View options
  1. Rock cycle only makes fossils
  2. Rock cycle has no relation with landforms
  3. Rocks form and change through endogenic processes and break or move through exogenic processes
  4. Rock cycle operates only by wind deposition
