Question

The large scale uplift or subsidence of land:

विकल्प

• Orogenic movements

• Diastrophic forces

• Epeirogenic movements

• Exogenic movements

Answer 1

Epeirogenic movements

Explanation:

Epeirogenic movements refer to the large-scale uplift or subsidence of land, typically occurring over broad areas. These movements are slow and vertical, leading to the raising or lowering of large landmasses without folding or faulting. Examples include the uplift of plateaus or the subsidence of coastal areas. They differ from orogenic movements, which are more localized and associated with mountain building.
