Question

question: which process is the reverse of an orogenic process? answer options: select one of four anthropogenic convergenic epeirogenic taphrogenic

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Orogenic processes involve mountain - building (crustal folding, faulting, uplift). Taphrogenic processes involve down - warping, rifting, or subsidence of the crust, which is the reverse of mountain - building. Anthropogenic refers to human - caused processes. Convergenic is not a standard geological process term related to orogenic reversal. Epeirogenic processes are broad - scale vertical movements of the crust (not the direct reverse of orogenic).

Answer:

D. Taphrogenic
