Tectonic control in landscape evolution is manifested by

  • A.Tilted river terraces
  • B.Alluvial forms
  • C.Increased boulder proportions in the river belt
  • D.River meandering

Answer: A

Tilted river terraces

Tilted river terraces show tectonic control, since uplift or tilting changes the river's gradient and leaves terraces at an angle. Alluvial forms, boulder content and meanders depend more on climate and river dynamics.

The other options, Alluvial forms; Increased boulder proportions in the river belt; River meandering, are not the answer to this question. This agrees with the official final answer key for the paper, which gives option A.
