    • Endogenic Forces:
    • Endogenic forces are those internal forces that derive their strength from the earth’s interior and play a crucial role in shaping the earth's crust.
    • Examples – mountain building forces, continent building forces, earthquakes, volcanism, etc.
    • The endogenic forces are mainly land-building forces.
    • Exogenic Forces:
    • Exogenic forces are those forces that derive their strength from the earth’s exterior or are originated within the earth’s atmosphere.
    • Examples of forces – the wind, waves, water, etc.
