Terrestrial processes are classified into Endogenic (internal) and Exogenic (external) processes. Mountain building is an Endogenic process that involves the uplift and deformation of the Earth’s crust, driven by tectonic activity. This can create various types of mountains, such as block, fold, and volcanic mountains, which can impact the landscape and create habitats for diverse flora and fauna. The Himalayan Mountains are an example of a prominent mountain range that is home to rare and endangered species like the snow leopard and Himalayan tahr.
