Zorluk: KolayPhysical Geography of the World

Match the physical landforms listed in List-I with their corresponding primary geomorphic agents responsible for their formation in List-II:

  • CirqueGlacial erosion
  • YardangWind (Aeolian) erosion
  • StalactiteUnderground water (Karst) deposition
  • DeltaRunning water (Fluvial) deposition

Cevap

Cirque matches with Glacial erosion; Yardang matches with Wind (Aeolian) erosion; Stalactite matches with Underground water (Karst) deposition; Delta matches with Running water (Fluvial) deposition.
Each landform is paired correctly with its agent of formation: Cirques are formed by glacial erosion, Yardangs by wind (aeolian) erosion, Stalactites by underground water (karst) deposition, and Deltas by running water (fluvial) sediment deposition.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the erosional landforms created by ice and wind action.
Cirque is linked to glacial erosion, and Yardang is linked to wind (aeolian) abrasion in deserts.
Both are classic landforms produced by abrasive erosional processes of glaciers and wind respectively.
2
Identify the depositional features formed by subsurface solution and surface streams.
Stalactite is linked to underground water precipitation in limestone caves, while Delta is linked to river sediment accumulation.
Deposition occurs when the transporting medium (groundwater or river stream) loses velocity or undergoes chemical precipitation.
