Match List I with List II and select the correct answer from the codes given below : Codes : (a) (b) (c) (d)List I (Force Types) List II (Characteristics) (a) Horizontal forces (1) Vertical movements (b) Epeirogenetic forces (2) Tangential movements (c) Catastrophic forces (3) Destructional process (d) Exogenetic forces (4) Sudden movements
(2) (1) (4) (3)
Horizontal (orogenetic) forces act along the surface of the crust, causing compression and tension that produce folds and faults. They are tangential movements, so it matches (2).
Epeirogenetic forces are slow, continent-building forces that cause uplift or subsidence of large areas. They act along the radius of the earth, i.e. vertical movements, so it matches (1).
Catastrophic (sudden) forces such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions act within moments or a few days, so it matches (4).
Exogenetic forces originate on the surface (running water, wind, glaciers, waves) and wear down the relief through weathering and erosion, a destructional process, so it matches (3).
So the matching is a–2, b–1, c–4, d–3.
Hence, (2) (1) (4) (3).
