Document Summary
Chapter 10 weathering, karst landscapes, and mass movement. The science that specifically studies the origin, evolution, form, and spatial distribution of landforms is geology. geography. geomorpholo gy. environment al chemistry. All processes that cause the wearing away or rearrangement of landforms are included in the term mass movement. mass wasting. weathering. denudation. The uplift of mountains is caused by endogenic processes. aggradation. denudation. exogenic forces. Which of the following is not exogenic in nature? weathering erosion denudation batholith formation mass wasting. Streams initially erode rapidly both in the headward direction and downward due to the high relief of the initial landscape. Slope angles and divides become steeper through time. The form that a landscape exhibits results from a balance between forces acting on the landscape. endogenic and exogenic processes. inputs and outputs of matter and energy. all of the above.
