Listed below are geographic features of the terrestrial worlds. In each case, identify the geological process: impact cratering, volcanism, erosion, or tectonics (where tectonics is any large-scale processes affecting the structure of the planetary crust), most responsible for the feature described. Match the geographic feature to the appropriate geologic process.

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

the correct match has been made which is as follows

(1.) Volcanism: big island of Hawaii, smooth surfaces of the lunar maria, Mars's Olympus Mons.

(2.) Impact cratering: old surface features of the lunar highlands.

(3.) Erosion: Earth's Grand Canyon.

(4.) Tectonics: current locations of Earth's continents, Mars's Valles Marineris, Mercury's many long, tall cliffs.

Correct.

All the four processes are interrelated, so although one may be most important to a particular feature, others often also play a role. For example, some erosion has occurred on the volcanic island of Hawaii, there are impact craters on the slopes of Olympus Mons, and volcanism and tectonics almost always go hand-in-hand.
