Valleys/ Depressions

Ridges

What landforms can be shown on a topographic map? Plains- A large area of flat land with few trees Interior Plain – A large, flat area that is away from the borders of a continent Coastal Plain – A flat, low-lying land adjacent to a seacoast

Types of Plains

How are Mountains classified? Mountain Range - is a group of adjacent mountains that are related to each other in shape and structure. Mountain system- is a group of mountain ranges Mountain belts – The largest mountain systems joined together

Mountain Classification Mountain Range Mountain System Mountain Belt

Hypothesis, Theory, & Law   Definition Examples Hypothesis Theory A theory is made from ___________________ A theory can be used to make _____________ Law A law doesn’t tell us __________ something happens. It’s just a __________________. Laws commonly involve _______________.
