Which of the following is not exogenic in nature?

A. batholith formation


B. mass wasting


C. erosion


D. weathering|||Hmm...tricky.





Erosion is definately exogenic as is weathering. Mass wasting would be considered exogenic as well as it is merely the downwards movement of materials via gravity and slope, and the erosion needed to uncover the batholith is exogenic.





HOWEVER, the magma and cooling of the magma is endogenic, so I would have to go with A.








Hope it helps|||B. mass wasting
