Question

How does nature try to make an isostatic adjustment with itself ? explain.​

Answer 1

Nature tries to make an isostatic adjustment with itself with the help of exogenic and endogenic forces. Endogenic forces which are forces under the crust like volcanoes and earthquakes do not happen to maintain the whole system of nature into balance but instead, they adjust to achieve balance. Similarly, exogenic forces act on the surface of the earth to eliminate unstable differences and maintain isostasy.

Explanation:

Isostasy is the property of remaining balanced. Geographically this balance can be observed by viewing the mountains of greater heights, plains, and deserts of medium levels and oceans or deep trenches of deeper levels.

Answer 2

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

• Nature is itself very dynamic all the rocks that found on the surface of the earth are again recycled back to the planet interior and the newer layers of rocks get added up form mid-ocean ridges that are the zones of construction of the plates or slabs of rock.

• Thus the isostatic adjustment takes place when the rocks that are erosion from the surface above by the agents of weathering and mass wasting the rocks and the landmass are slowly submerged and the gradually get deposited inside the trenches that in turn recycle these rocks and the iso or similar rocks appears form below as to balance the continuous flowage of matter form above layers.  

• Hence we see the 9 parts of the iceberg submerged underwater and the rest 1 or 2 parts above it as to balance the heavier matter form the base and to create an adjustment that keeps the dynamism of earth.
