Which of the following terms does not indicate similar processes?
-
Diastrophism
-
Folding
-
Exfoliation
-
Warping
C
Correct answer
Explanation
Diastrophism, folding, and warping are all processes of crustal deformation involving rock bending or warping under tectonic stress - they are similar processes of structural deformation. Exfoliation is a weathering process where outer rock layers peel off due to pressure release or thermal expansion - completely different from tectonic deformation processes.
