Categorize the forces that change the Earth's surface into internal and external. List the processes associated with each category.

Forces Changing the Earth's Surface

The Earth's surface is constantly changing due to the action of internal and external forces. These forces form the various landforms we see, creating relief.

Internal Forces

Source of Energy: Earth's internal energy.

• Processes: Movement of the Earth's crust.

External Forces

Source of Energy: Solar energy.

• Processes:
• Activity of wind.
• Activity of flowing water.
• Activity of glaciers.
• Activity of the sea.
• Activity of humans.

Results: The specific results of these processes would be detailed in a separate section, but they encompass the creation and modification of landforms like mountains, valleys, plains, and coastlines.
