• Mountain-a landform with high elevation and high relief
• Mountain range-group of mountains close in shape
• Plateau- a landform with high elevation more or less the high relief
• Landform region-area of land where topography is made up of this type of
land
ONE THING YOU SHOULD REALLY
KNOW
•Topography-the
shape of a piece
of land
• MAPS AND GLOBES ARE DRAWN TO SCALE
AND USE SYMBOLS TO REPRESENT FEATURES
