Question
Consider the following statements:
- The radial force lead to the epeirogenetic movements in earth plates.
- Eurasian plate is made only of the continental crust.

Answer: (b)Epeirogenic movements are those involving forces acting along a radius from the Earth’s centre to the surface, and are characterized by large-scale uplift or submergence of land areas.The movements involved are often so slow and widespread that no obvious folding or fracturing is produced in the rocks.
