The first order of relief is the broadest category that includes landforms like huge continental platforms and big ocean basins.
Continental platforms are masses of earth’s crust that lies above the sea level and also includes the ones under sea whereas ocean basins are the landmasses under the sea level.
The second order has ocean basins that include mid-ocean ridges, submarine canons, slopes etc. and continental features include mountain masses, lowlands, plains and plateaus.
The third order includes dunes, caves, beaches, peaks, cliffs, valleys, gorges etc.
