State the effects of exogenic processes in the lives human,animals in the environment
Answers
Answer:
The process that occurs due to the influence of exogenic forces (forces that derive their strength from earth exterior or earth atmosphere) are called exogenic processes.
Weathering, Erosion, Mass wasting, Deposition are the main type of exogenic processes that occurs.
Animals such as earthworms, rats, rabbits, termites and ant breakdown the rocks assist in weathering. Hooves of animals breaks soil and causes soil erosion.
Breakdown of rocks through weathering help in finding minerals that are required for the crops or human beings breakdown rocks for construction of roads and houses.
Erosion by flowing water causes floods which results in loss of properties, life and livestock.
Mass-Wasting is defined as the down slope movement of rock and regolith near the Earth's surface mainly due to the force of gravity. Mass wasting has drastic effects on human and animals life in the form of landsliding, earthquakes.
Deposition is the pres in which sediments, rocks and soil are added land mass. A positive effect of deposition is that it creates new land. And negative effect is it takes away new lands.
