GENERAL GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -What are the examples of Exogenic forces? Exogenic forces include the tidal force of the moon, erosion. Erosion is mostly made by precipitation such as rain and snow, and by the wind cyclones, tornadoes, droughts, thunderstorms, rainfall, snowfall, winds, hailstorms.

Detailed explanation-2: -In the most broad and common meaning, erosion includes all exogenic processes, in the absence of weathering (which causes the breakdown of rock material) and mass movements.

Detailed explanation-3: -Deposition is the exogenic process that happens after erosion. This process adds sediments, soil and rocks to a landform or land mass. Where a river meets the ocean is called the mouth of the river. Soil carried by a river is deposited at the mouth and new land is formed.

Detailed explanation-4: -Different types of exogenic processes are weathering, mass wasting/movements, erosion and transportation.

Detailed explanation-5: -Water and glacial erosion are other examples of exogenic processes. Endogenic processes are those that get their energy from endogenic forces originating deep within the Earth.
