Answer 2

Answer:

the major landforms are Mountains, hills, plateaus, and plains are the four major types of landforms. Minor landforms include buttes, canyons, valleys, and basins. Tectonic plate movement under the Earth can create landforms by pushing up mountains and hills.

Examples are:

1. Barchan - A convex-shaped sand dune with a gentle slope up the side of the wind direction and a 30-35 degree slip face that faces away from the wind
2. Blowout - A small hollow
3. Desert pavement - A sheet-like surface of rock
4. Desert varnish - A dark stain on the surfaces of desert rocks
5. Dune - A hill or mountain of sand
6. Dreikanter - A three-faced weathered rock
7. Erg - A sand covered desert
8. Loess - An accumulation of sediment or silt that are joined together by calcium carbonate
9. Dry lake - A waterless lakebed, typically covered in fine-grained rocks that contain salt
10. Sandhill - A sandy or low-vegetation hill area that receives minimal rainfall and has trouble retaining the water.
11. Ventifact - Rocks that have been cut and polished by the wind
12. Yardang - Very large or very long, streamlined, sculpted forms caused by wind erosion.
