endogenic processes

• geologic processes

  • natural forces and mechanisms that shape and modify the earths surface overtime

• edogenic

  • endogenic processes is driven by internal forces that exist in the earth
  • endogenic forces create relief fractures on the surface of the earth

• folds

  • created by convergent boundaries only
  • waves in earths crust, formed when rocks bend under stress caused by compression

• rift valley and mountain ranges

  • elongated depressions formed by pulling apart tectonic plates
  • like stretching dough, rising parts on the sides are mountain ranges and the dip in the middle is the rift valley

• mountain ranges

  • form where 2 continental plates collide
  • since both have the same thickness and weight, they crumple and fold until rocks are forced up

• movements

  1. collision zones are when tectonic plates collide, the force pushes the crust upwards forming mountains
  2. subduction dones when 1 plate dives under another, the plate on top buckles and forms mountains
  3. continental rifting uplifting of land masses along shoulders of a rift valley

• • faults are fractures in the earths crust where movements occur, often causing earthquakes
  • boundaries are where tectonic plates meet, leading to geological features like mountains and earthquakes
