Answer 2

Here is your answer-

The Plains :-

The Plains in Brazil are confined to two areas namely the Amazon basin in the north and Paraguay Parana source region in the Southwest. Amazon Plains lying between the two Highlands form the largest plains land of Brazil. Amazon Plains lying in the Northern part of Brazil generally slope eastward. The Amazon basin is quite wide in the west and it narrows eastward . Its width is minimum where the Guiana Highlands and Brazilian Highlands come closer. As the river approaches the Atlantic ocean, the width of the plains increases. These are mostly forested areas and largely in assessable due to frequent flooding and dense undergrowth. Most of the Amazon planes are covered by Tropical rainforest.

The Other plains in Brazil are located to the south western part of Highlands. They form the source region of Paraguay and Parana rivers. The source region of Paraguay slope towards the South while the source region of parhana slope towards the southwest.

Pantanal is one of the largest wetland in the world. It lies towards the Southwest part of highland areas. It is a region of swamps and marshes in northwestern Mato grosso do Sul in Brazil and it extends into Argentina too.
