Question

Compare between northern plains and coastal plains

Answer 1

Northern plains - The northern plains are an important physical division of India. They are situated to the south of the Himalayas. These plains are also known as the Indo-Gangetic Plains. The Northern Plains are formed by the silt deposited by Himalayan rivers and their tributaries.

Coastal plains - A coastal plain is flat, low-lying land adjacent to a sea coast. One of the largest coastal plains is located in southeastern United States. The Gulf Coastal Plain of North America extends northwards from the Gulf of Mexico along the Lower Mississippi River to the Ohio River, which is a distance of about 981 miles.
