2. Submergence of land area below sea-level
3. Upliftment of whole continent or part thereof
4. Upliftment of coastal land of the continents

Correct Answer

Options:

1. Formation of folds or crustal warping leading to local rise or subsidence of crustal parts
2. Upliftment and subsidence of continental masses through upward and downward movements respectively
3. Horizontal forces and movements
4. Formation of mountains due to endogenetic forces working in horizontal manner

Correct Answer

Options:

1. Tensional forces create rupture, cracks, fracture, and faults, while compressional forces cause crustal bending leading to the formation of folds or crustal warping leading to local rise or subsidence of crustal parts
