How do the internal factors like earthquake and volcano change the earth crust?make a list of them.

Answer 1

Dear student,

• The endogenetic factors work in the earth's interior invisibly.
• The endogenic factors include mainly earthquakes and volcanic eruptions which are originated within the Earth’s interior.
• The endogenetic factors operate in the earth's interior as well as in the ocean bottoms.
• These factors are generally responsible for making the land surface and the ocean bottoms irregular.
• As a result of earthquakes, some portions of the continents and ocean bottoms may be uplifted or subsided.
• Due to volcanic eruptions, we may see volcanic mountains are formed within the Earth’s surface. Volcanic islands can also be found mainly under the ocean like the Pacific ring of fire.
• Due to earthquakes, landslides can occur and cracks or ruptures within the Earth’s surface can be found.
