Weekly Quiz Competition

Question 1
1 / -0

What is flow of water?

A
Direction according to mountain

B
Direction according to gravity and slopes

C
Direction according to wind

D
All of above

Solution

Running water flows naturally in a direction according to gravity along the slope and makes its own way. This is called a flow of water. When many such flows of water come together, a river is formed.
Question 2
1 / -0

Which type of landforms are produced by glacier?

A
Cirques

B
Horns

C
Hanging valleys

D
All of above
Solution
The erosional work of glaciers produces landforms like:-
- Cirques
- Horns
- Hanging valleys
- Sheepbacks
Question 3
1 / -0

What are the factor responsible for erosional transportational and depositional work?

A
Slope of land

B
Volume of water flowing in the river

C
Volume of sediments in the river

D
All of above
Solution
Following are the factor responsible for erosional transportational and depositional work of a river:-
- Slope of land
- The type of rock
- Volume of water flowing in the river
- The length of flow
- Volume of sediments in the river
Question 4
1 / -0

Which of the following is/are responsible for riverbed and riverbank erosion?

A
Flow of water

B
Sand particles

C
Pebbles

D
All of above

Solution

The riverbed and the river banks get eroded because of the fast flow of water, sand particles, pebbles etc, and the various tributaries joining the main river. All these lead to the formation of gorges, V-shaped valleys and waterfalls.
Question 5
1 / -0

What are the agents of eroded materials?

A
Wind

B
Sea waves

C
Groundwater

D
All of above

Solution

The eroded materials gets carried away by agents like running water, glaciers, wind, sea waves and groundwater. These all work on erosion, transportation and deposition of eroded materials.
Question 6
1 / -0

Which of the following statements is wrong?

A
Laterite soils are black in colour.

B
Mountain soils are shallow and immature.

C
Black soils have ability to retain moisture for a long time.

D
Alluvial soils are fertile.

Solution

Laterite is a soil and rock type rich in iron and aluminium, and is commonly considered to have formed in hot and wet tropical areas. Nearly all laterites are of rusty-red coloration, because of high iron oxide content.
Question 7
1 / -0

The Arid soils are ______________ in colour.

A
Red to brown

B
Dark brown

C
Dark red

D
Pink

Solution

Arid soils range from red to brown in color. They are generally sandy in structure and saline in nature. Due to the dry climate, high temperature, and accelerated evaporation, they lack moisture and humus. Nitrogen is insufficient and the phosphate content is normal. Arid soils are characteristically developed in western Rajasthan, Haryana areas.
Question 8
1 / -0

What is the range of glaciers?

A
1 mm to 1 cm

B
1 cm to 1 m

C
10 cm to 10 m

D
1 cm to 1 km

Solution

Glaciers move at different velocities daily ranging from 1 cm to 1 m. The Jakobshavn Glacier in Greenland is one of the fastest moving glaciers in the world. It moves at the rate of 46m per day.
Question 9
1 / -0

Which type of landforms are produced by glacier?

A
Drumlins

B
Eskers

C
Both A and B

D
None of these
Solution
The depositional work of glacier produces landforms like:-
- Drumlins
- Eskers
Question 10
1 / -0

Moraines are divided into how many types?

A
Two

B
Three

C
Four

D
Eight

Solution

The glaciers carry sediments with them. These sediments are called moraines. Depending on the location of the deposits, moraines can be divided into four type.
