What to Focus On

  • Exogenous forces derive their energy from the Sun.
  • Gradation is the levelling of the land surface.
  • A graded surface is one where erosion and deposition are almost equal.
  • Weathering breaks rocks in place.
  • Weathering is static, while erosion is mobile.
  • Weathering is of three types: physical, chemical, and biological.
  • Physical weathering is more effective in dry and cold areas.
  • Physical weathering affects rocks to a great depth.
  • Insolation causes expansion and contraction of rocks.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Exogenous forces get their energy from inside the Earth.

Weathering and erosion mean the same thing.

Denudation is different from degradation.

Memory Tips

Exogenous forces derive their energy from the sun

Gradation as leveling of the land surface

Degradation and aggradation as components of gradation

Denudation means 'to lay bare' and includes weathering, erosion, and transportation
