Fault block mountains

The side blocks in faulted mountains may be of mountainous heights. Horst and Graben are often complimentary structures. This type of mountains are typical in occurrence in Basin and Range province of U.S.A.

Hint Answer

2. Depending upon extent of incision and denudation occurred during formation of a valley, how many broad classes of valleys are present?

2 4 3 5

3

The nature of valley profile at any section in course of a river depends on ratio Incision: Denudation operating in that section. Three broad cases may be considered. Saw cut valleys; V-shaped valleys and flat-floored valleys.

Hint Answer

3. What is term used for a linear type of mountainous structure characterized with two slopes on opposite slides?

Mountain range Mountain belt Mountain system Mountain family

Mountain range

The term mountain range is used for a linear ridge type mountainous structure characterized with two slopes on opposite sides and commonly (not necessarily) culminating in peaks.

Hint Answer

4. Which is largest fresh water lake in world?

Hint Answer

5. Which mountains are called as complex mountains?

Volcanic mountains Folded mountains Fault block mountains Relict mountains

Folded mountains

The folded mountains are also called as complex mountains. During and after ir formation, se mountains have been repeatedly, bent, wrapped and faulted leading to present day most complicated structures exhibited by m.

Hint Answer

6. The modification of valley walls by undercutting, wearing and erosion is called ______

Incision Deposition Denudation Enudation

Denudation

Incision is down-cutting along base of channel by river itself and denudation is modification of valley walls by undercutting, wearing and erosion.

Hint Answer

7. Caspian sea is which type of lake?

Large lake Fresh-water lake Saline lake Stream lake

Saline lake

The biggest lake, Caspian Sea, is a lake belonging saline type. In or cases, salinity of lake is easily attributed to dry climate, which causes precipitation of salts that form layers along bottom and banks of lakes.

Hint Answer

8. The class of mountains most common in geographic distribution and often very complicated in geological structure is ______

Relict mountains Residual mountains Tectonic mountains Artificial mountains

Tectonic mountains

Tectonic mountains owe ir origin to severe intern forces oregenic forces arising from within Earth. These mountains are most common in geographic distribution and often very complicated in geological structure.

Hint Answer

9. Valleys in which incision becomes negligible and denudation of slopes is major process are ______

Saw cut valleys V-shaped valleys Flat-floored valleys Glacial valleys

Flat-floored valleys

When incision becomes negligible and denudation of slopes is major process, result is a flat-floored valley. It is common profile of a valley in lower reaches of a river.

Hint Answer

10. The Dal and Wular lakes are ______

Volcanic basins Glacial basins Fluviatile basins Groundwater basins

Fluviatile basins

The well-known Dal and Wular Lakes of Kashmir are believed to be detached and modified meander loops of Jhelum. Similar lakes are also found in delta of Mississippi River.
