Answer
Differences between Exogenous and Endogenous processes:
| Exogenous processes | Endogenous processes |
|---|---|
| Exogenous or external processes operate above the Earth's surface. | The processes that take place below the surface of the Earth, in the interior, are known as endogenous or internal processes. |
| Exogenous processes involve external agents like wind, water, and glaciers that modify landforms through weathering, erosion, transportation, and deposition. | Endogenous processes involve internal forces such as folding, faulting, and volcanic activities that create new landforms. |
