Answers
Answer:-
The three ways by which land can be described or the shape of the land can be determined are:-
- Elevation
- Relief
- Landform
Elevation:-
The elevation tells us about the vertical distance of the earth's surface and determines whether it is above the sea level or below the sea level. The sea level is the average height level of the sea which is used for measuring the height of other substances on places on the earth's surface.
Relief:-
The relief tells us about different elevation points on the earth's surface. If we talk about highest relief,it is actually the highest elevation point and refers to the mountains. If which ok about lowest relief, it is actually the lowest elevation point and refers to the valleys. There a different relief features we have already learnt about. The relief features are as follows: Mountains, valleys, plateaus , plains, etc.
Landforms:-
The landforms are actually different features of the solid ground or earth surface (basically land). It is actually tells us about different types of shapes formed on earth surface. The basic examples include mountains, hills, plains, plateau, etc.
