Landforms and their Evolution

NCERT Fundamentals of Physical Geography, Class 11, Chapter 7 follows the birth and wearing down of mountains, plateaus, and plains. It shows folding and faulting raising ranges, volcanic outpourings spreading lava sheets, and rivers, glaciers, and winds carving valleys, cirques, dunes, and deltas. The chapter stages landform growth from youth to maturity and old age, linking rock structure, process, and time. With sketches of meanders, moraines, and sea cliffs, readers learn to trace the story written across any landscape.
