The Himalayas are a young mountain range that is still being formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian tectonic plates. This collision causes the land to rise, which puts a lot of stress on the rocks. When the rocks reach their breaking point, they can collapse, causing landslides.<\/p>\n<p>Coastal erosion is the process of land being worn away by the action of waves and tides. This is a natural process that occurs all over the world, but it is more severe in some places than others. Coastal erosion can be caused by a number of factors, including storms, rising sea levels, and human activities such as development and agriculture.<\/p>\n<p>The presence of deserts does not make a place prone to landslides. In fact, deserts are often very stable because there is little vegetation to hold the soil in place.<\/p>\n<p>Volcanic activity can cause landslides, but it is not the main cause of landslides in Arunachal Pradesh. The Himalayas are not a volcanic region, and there are no active volcanoes in Arunachal Pradesh.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, the correct answer is (a) Fragile Himalayan terrain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Fragile Himalayan terrain&#8221;
