Idea that the universe began as just a single point then expanded. and stretched to grow as large as it is right now.
Steady state theory
Flat Earth theory
Eternal inflation theory
Big bang theory
Idea that a spinning cloud of dust made of mostly light. elements called a "nebula", flattened into a protoplanetary disk and became a solar system.
Protoplanet Hypothesis
Nebular Hypothesis
Galactocentricity theory
Whirling cloud of gas or dust that becomes a planet by condensation during pormation of a solar system.
Nebular hypothesis
Kant-Laplace Nebular theory
Protoplanet Hypothesis
The solar system formed from a giant cloud of gas and dust about 4. lo billion you ago this cloud collapsed under its own gravity, spinning Faster and Flattening into a disk. The sun pormed at the center, and the remaining materials clumped together to pamed the planets.
Kent-Laplace Nebular Theory
Solar Nebular Theory
Nebular Hypothesis
Is the third and coldest layer of Earth's atmosphere.
Thermosphere
Exosphere
Troposphere
Mesosphere
It is characterized by high temperature and large variability, in response to changes in solar ultraviolet radiation and solar-driven geomagnetic activity.
Troposphere
Mesosphere
Thermosphere
Exosphere

an internal geomorphic process.
Endogenic Process
Exogenic Process
is the geologic theory that the igneous rocks forming the Earth originated from intrusive magmatic activity, with a continuing gradual process of weathering and erosion wearing away rocks.
Volcanism
Magmatism
Plutonism
is the eruption of molten rock onto the surface of a planet.
Magmatism
Volcanism
Plutonism
is the deposition of sediments. It takes place when particles in suspension settle out of the fluid in which they are entrained and come to rest against a barrier.
Erosion
Sedimentation
Transportation
is the process where rocks are broken down by natural forces such as wind or water.
Erosion
Sedimentation
Transportation
geological phenomena and processes that originate externally to the Earth's surface.
Endogenic Process
Exogenic Process
also known as mass movement, is a general term for the movement of rock or soil down slopes under the force of gravity.
Transportation
Erosion
Mass Wasting
Weathering
is the deterioration of rocks, soils and minerals through contact with water, atmospheric gases, sunlight, and biological organisms.
Erosion
Weathering
Transportation
Mass Wasting
It refers to the process of taking the rock fragments from one place to another by any of the above mentioned agents. As such transportation is a sub segment of the whole process of erosion.
