All the terrains and their various forms located on the earth’s surface are mainly studied under the lithosphere. Studies are taken into. consideration of the conditions and processes which have transformed the earth’s surface to the present state. This type of study consists mainly of geological history of the earth, the composition of geologal strata, tectonic, endogenous and baroque forces, structural processes, phase, etc.

Different shapes of the lithosphere are studied under Geo – morphology. Under structure its, the part on which we variance and the depth to which we use it are included. The surface of the earth is not very smooth, rather is very uneven. On one hand, there are a vast fields on this surface, and on the other hand, there are small low lying islands or high mountain peaks or somewhere there are moderately elevated plateaus.

Since the creation of continents, various geological powers and processes, have contributed in the formation of different land forms on the surface. Different types of profiles are formed as a result of these geological forces. Therefore, all these facts are part of the lithosphere.
