    Answer: Endogenic systems arise from forces within the Earth, while exogenic systems arise from forces above the Earth's surface

    Explanation: Endogenic systems or factors are those that, by their own power, cause processes and actions within the Earth. Exogenic systems are those that by their forces cause processes and actions above the surface and on the surface of the Earth.

    Exogenous systems are driven primarily by solar energy, as well as by all forces generated by the action of solar energy, and consequently by the energy of the moon, etc. So, for example, soil erosion is caused by the influence of wind force, then the tide is influenced by the force of the moon, snow, weathering, running water, etc.

    Endogenous systems are caused by forces originating from the depths of the Earth. Thus, slow and sudden movements of parts of the Earth's mass below the surface can be induced. For example, volcanoes and earthquakes are sudden movements, while slow movements are tectonic plate movements that contribute to land formation. Slow movements can be horizontal, those that contribute to the formation of mountains, and vertical that contribute to the formation, primarily changes in continental building.
