Processes
- To achieve or be done with a particular objective or goal you need to do various kinds of activities in a chronology of sequences which is known as a process.
- The process is, done, under the natural condition known as a natural process.
Endogenic (Internal) process
- The continuous movement takes place internally / within/ below the crust of the earth.
Exogenic (External) process
- The continuous movement takes place above the surface of the Earth.
- It includes wearing and rebuilding the land surface.

Erosion
- The wearing away of the Earth's surface, that is the material such as
- Stone,
- Pebble or
- Silt wear down, in the natural process is known as erosion.
Deposition
- When eroded material accumulates on a particular place for rebuilding landform known as a deposition.
Categorisation of landforms
- In categorisation we have
- Mountains,
- Plateau and
- Planes.
River of Ice / Glacier
- The water accumulates around the mountain in frozen ice the form known as glaciers or rivers of ice.
Mountains Range
- When several mountains are arranged in a line it is known as a mountain range.
- It is a series of "ridges" which originate in the same age and underwent the same processes
- These are long and narrow extensions.
- For example the "Himalayan mountain range."

Types of mountains
- In the types of mountains we have
- Fold Mountain,
- block mountain, and
- volcanic mountains
- Dome Shape (Formed out of Magma plume beneath sedimentary rocks strata )
👉NCERT POLITY 👀
Fold mountain
- The mountains are the product of folding to an elevation of the earth's surface.
- That is when the earth's surface lifted upwards with
- rugged relief,
- steep slopes, and
- high conical peaks.
Relief
- The alternative name is the terrain.
- It involved, in itself, the vertical and the horizontal upliftment and subduction of the land surface.
Block mountain
- When a large area of the land surface is broken and displaced vertically.
- As a result, two features are created that are
- uplifted part and
- subducted part.
- Here uplifted part is known as a
- Horsts and subtracted parts are known as a
- Graben.
Volcanic mountain
- The mountains formed out of volcanic activity.
- A prominent example is the Andes Volcanic fold mountain of South America.

River Valley
- These are the depressed areas of the Earth's surface.
- These are created through a natural process in which forces such as gravity water and ice erosion of the land surface.
- The valleys are U / V-shaped.
- A valley formed out of river action is known as a river valley.
- Another name is Fluvial Valley.
👉NCERT भूगोल 👀
Plateau
- Comparatively elevated flat land around its surroundings where one or more sides with a steep slope.
- It is a flat-topped tableland.
Deccan plateau
- Deccan plateau which is on the land of South India is one of the oldest plateaus in the world.
Tibet plateau
- Situated in the Himalayan mountain system is the world's highest plateau.
- That's why also known as the roof of the world.
The utility of plateau
- Plateau are mineral rich landforms.
- Known as the "storehouse of minerals"
- So, economy booster of a particular country.
- Example "Chotta Nagpur plateau" of Bharat.
Chhota Nagpur plateau
- Chota Nagpur plateau situated in India in the states of Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh is a very
- iron ore,
- coal and
- manganese mineral-rich plateau.
Plains
- Very flat land with relief generally not more than 200 above the sea level is known as a plain.
- North India plane or Sindhu (Indus) river Ganga river plains are the world-famous plains known for their agricultural fertility.
- These are the production of depositional activities where eroded material of elevated land that is mountain or plateau gets a deposit in the lower rugged flat land and transforms into plains.
👉Upcoming Chapters 👀
The utility of plain
- Plain is very useful for agriculture production and water availability.
- That's why having a high concentration of the population.
