Endogenic Processes
by Cecelia Cortes
2
What are endogenic processes?
These are processes that occur beneath the surface of the earth.
These processes are associated with the energy coming from the interior layers.
3
Open Ended
What are the interior layers of the earth?
4
Multiple Choice
Which layer has these characteristics?
- composed of rocks
- around 5 - 70 km thick
Crust
Inner Core
Mantle
Outer Core
5
Multiple Choice
Which layer has these characteristics?
- it comprises more than 82% of Earth's volume
- divided into two based on the composition (sphere of rock and weak sphere)
Crust
Inner Core
Mantle
Outer Core
6
Multiple Choice
Which layer has these characteristics?
- it is a liquid layer that is rich in iron
- generates the Earth's magnetic field
Crust
Inner Core
Mantle
Outer Core
7
Multiple Choice
Which layer has these characteristics?
- the iron in this layer is solid
- produces immense pressure to sustain gravity
Crust
Inner Core
Mantle
Outer Core

Open Ended
Why do we need to understand the composition of each layer? How do the processes that generate in the interior layers contribute in shaping the Earth's surface?
9
Exogenic Processes can be described as...
1. Slow Movements (Diastrophism / Orogeny and Epeirogeny)
2. Sudden Movements
10
What is Orogenesis?
Orogenesis comes from the latin word 'oros' which means mountain and 'genesis' which means origin or creation.
11
Multiple Choice
Orogenic movements lead to deformation of crust due to tectonic stress. What are the two forces which caused the deformation of crust?
Tension and Reaction
Reaction and Friction
Tension and Compression
Compression and Reaction
12
Multiple Choice
Compression force causes rocks or rock layers to ____.
break
fold
deform
snap
13
Multiple Choice
What geologic features are formed due to compression force?
Plateaus and Volcanoes
Mountains, Ridges, and Valleys
Mountains and Volcanoes
Ridges and Plateaus
14
Multiple Choice
Tension force caused the upwards or downward movements of rock or rock layers. The displacement of rock layers caused the formation of _____ and _____.
faults and folds
cracks and folds
faults and cracks
folds and faults
15
Multiple Choice
What geologic features are formed due to tension force?
Rift Valleys and Mountain Ranges
Block Mountains and Mountain Ranges
Rift Valleys and Volcanoes
Block Mountains and Rift Valleys
16
Open Ended

17
Open Ended
