Answer:

Geosyncline, linear trough of subsidence of the Earth's crust within which vast amounts of sediment accumulate. The filling of a geosyncline with thousands or tens of thousands of feet of sediment is accompanied in the late stages of deposition by folding, crumpling, and faulting of the deposits.

  • A geosyncline is a large scale depression in the earths crustcontaining very thick deposits. The upliftment of sediments in a basin results in the formation of lofty mountains especially when the adjacent area rocks subside due to collision of plates.
