Earth Sci

It is the process by which the crust is disfigured along tectonic plates

• Deformation

• Strain

• Stress

• Tension

It indicates the shape change of a material permanently and cannot revert to its original structure.

• Ductile force

• Compressional force

• Ductile deformation

It is an extremely hot liquid and semi-liquid rock located under earth's crust.

• Magma

• Lava

• Sediments

It occurs when rocks over a large region are exposed to great heat and pressure. This is due to deep burial or to movements of rocks in the earth's crust.

• Contact

• Regional Metamorphism

It is the geological in which earthen materials are worn away and transported by natural forces such as wind or water

It is when water gets inside the joints, alternate freezing and thawing episodes pry the rock apart.

It is the wearing away of rocks by constant collision of loose particles.

It is the process that takes place at or near the earth's surface that makes the surface wear away.

It is also known as the slope movement or mass movement

The change in shape that happens when rocks are disfigured by stress.
