Q35 (NDA-I/2010) Geography › World Physical Geography › Weathering and erosion Answer Verified

Match List-I with List-II and select the correct answer using the code given below the Lists : List-I (landform) A. Inselbergs B. Stalagmite C. Delta D. Moraines List-II (Agent of erosion/ deposition) 1. River 2. Glacier 3. Undergroundwater 4. Wind Code : A B C D

Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: D
Explanation

The landforms listed are created by specific geomorphic agents through erosion or deposition. Inselbergs are isolated residual hills rising abruptly from a plain, typically formed by wind erosion and weathering in arid regions [t1]. Stalagmites are depositional features (dripstones) found in caves, formed by the precipitation of calcium carbonate from underground water [t4]. Deltas are fan-shaped depositional landforms created at the mouth of a river where it enters a standing body of water, such as a sea or lake, due to a decrease in velocity [t1, t8]. Moraines are accumulations of rock debris (till) deposited by glaciers as they melt or move, categorized into lateral, terminal, or medial types [c2, t3]. Therefore, the correct matching is A-4 (Wind), B-3 (Underground water), C-1 (River), and D-2 (Glacier), which corresponds to option 4.
