Endogenic Processes

Tectonic forces that are operating inside the earth causes rocks to undergo deformation.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Folds are planar structures resulting from brittle deformation caused by two sliding plates

• TRUE

• FALSE

Movement of tectonic plates and formation of volcanoes are endogenic processes.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Magma: Intrusive

Lava: Extrusive

• TRUE

• FALSE

Density and Pressure increase as depth increases

• TRUE

• FALSE

Removal of volatile during metamorphism increases the rate of the rock to transform into metamorphic rock.

• TRUE

• FALSE

Strain causes the rock to deform

• TRUE

• FALSE

Plastic deformation, Ductile deformation and Permanent stage are the three stages of deformation

• TRUE

• FALSE

Shear stress develops when the two dominant force are directed towards each other on the same axis.

• TRUE

• FALSE

When one plate subducts and melts beneath the other, magma is likely to be formed.
