Find out the latitudinal and longitudanal extension of Northern Plains.
pls tell fast it's urgent
Answers
Answer:
The Northern Plains have been formed from the alluvium that the mountain rivers deposited here.
This turned the soil on the surfaced land fertile for growing a rich harvest of variety of crops.
This led to the development of the Indus River Valley Civilisation. The rich soil was further aided by favourable climate and constant water supply from the rivers.
Between the mouths of the Indus and the Ganga-Brahmaputra, the North Indian Plain covers a distance of 2400 km. It is 240-320 km wide at some places.
The North Indian Plains have the Indus river system in the west and the Ganga-Brahmaputra river system in the east. The first includes Jhelum, Chenab, Ravi, Beas, Satluj.
The Indus flows into the Arabian Sea. The second includes Ganga, its tributaries and the Brahmaputra which combine as Meghna as they drain into the Bay of Bengal.
They form the world’s largest and fastest growing delta. The difference in relief has led the North Indian Plains to be divided into four zones : (i) Bhabhar, (ii) Tarai, (iii) Bangar and (iv) Khadar.
Answer:
Hi..
Explanation:
The northern plains are a flat region and cover a vast landscape of 3200 km. They are formed by the three major rivers system as Ganga, Indus, and Brahmaputra and forms the largest alluvial tracts in the world extending from west to east with a width of 150 to 300 km.
These plains extend approximately 3200 km from west to east. The average width of these plains varies between 150 and 300 km. In general, the width of the northern plains increases from east to west (90-100km in Assam to about 500km in Punjab).
