INFORMATION OF LAND FORM FEATURES
You must have seen some of the land form features as
shown in the figure.
The earth has an infinite variety of land form
Some part of the lithosphere maybe rugged and some flat.
These landform are a result of two process.
You will be amazed to know that the ground you are
standing is slowly moving.
Within the earth, a continuous movement is taking place.
LAND FORM
MOUNTAINS
A mountains is any natural elevation of the earth surface.
1. The mountain may have a small summit and a broad bas.
2. It is consider higher than the surrounding area.
3. Some mountains are even higher than the clouds.
4. In some mountains, there are permanently frozen rivers of
ice, they are called Glaciers.
The Siachen Glacier in Kashmir is the second longest
World’s on-polar areas
MOUNTAINS
FOLD MOUNTAINS
The Himalayan mountains and the alps are young
fold mountains with rugged relief and high conical
peaks.
The Aravali rang in India is one of the oldest fold
mountains systems in the world.
The Appalachians in north America and the Ural
mountains in Russia have rounded features and low
elevation . They are very old fold mountain.
FOLD MOUNTAINS
BLOCK MOUNTAINS
Block Mountains are crated when large area
are broken and displaced vertically.
The Rhine valley and the Vosges mountain
in Europe are examples of such mountain
system
The mountain has a flat top
BLOCK MOUNTAINS
VOLCANIC MOUNTAINS
Volcanic Mountains are formed due to
volcanic activity
Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa and Mt. Fujiyama in
Japan are examples of such mountains.
Volcanic mountains have a hole in the top
middle where the lava comes out just as the
experimental figure of a volcano shown.
VOLCANIC MOUNTAINS
ICELAND VOLCANOES
PLATEAU
A plateau is an elevated flat land. It is a flat topped table land
standing above the surrounding area.
A plateau may have one or more sides with step slopes.
The height of plateaus often varies from few hundred meters
to several thousand meters.
The Deccan plateau in India is one of the oldest plateaus.
The East African Plateaus in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda
and the western plateau of Australia are other examples.
PLATEAU
PLAINS
Plains are large stretches of flat land.
They are , generally, not more than 200 meters
above main sea level.
Some plains are externally level.
Most of the plains are formed by rivers and their
tributes.
Generally, plains are very fertile
PLAINS
NORTHERN PLAINS
SOUTHERN PLAINS
LANDFORMS AND THE PEOPLE
Humans have been living on different kinds of
lands forms in different ways . Life is difficult in
mountainous areas .
Plains provide much easy conditions of life.
There are many way to live in plains they can
make roads, house, or easy to grow crops.
People use to pollute water or nature

INFORMATION OF LAND FORM FEATURES
You must have seen some of the land form features as
shown in the figure.
The earth has an infinite variety of land form
Some part of the lithosphere maybe rugged and some flat.
These landform are a result of two process.
You will be amazed to know that the ground you are
standing is slowly moving.
Within the earth, a continuous movement is taking place.
LAND FORM
MOUNTAINS
A mountains is any natural elevation of the earth surface.
1. The mountain may have a small summit and a broad bas.
2. It is consider higher than the surrounding area.
3. Some mountains are even higher than the clouds.
4. In some mountains, there are permanently frozen rivers of
ice, they are called Glaciers.
The Siachen Glacier in Kashmir is the second longest
World’s on-polar areas
MOUNTAINS
FOLD MOUNTAINS
The Himalayan mountains and the alps are young
fold mountains with rugged relief and high conical
peaks.
The Aravali rang in India is one of the oldest fold
mountains systems in the world.
The Appalachians in north America and the Ural
mountains in Russia have rounded features and low
elevation . They are very old fold mountain.
FOLD MOUNTAINS
BLOCK MOUNTAINS
Block Mountains are crated when large area
are broken and displaced vertically.
The Rhine valley and the Vosges mountain
in Europe are examples of such mountain
system
The mountain has a flat top
BLOCK MOUNTAINS
VOLCANIC MOUNTAINS
Volcanic Mountains are formed due to
volcanic activity
Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa and Mt. Fujiyama in
Japan are examples of such mountains.
Volcanic mountains have a hole in the top
middle where the lava comes out just as the
experimental figure of a volcano shown.

Volcanic Mountains are formed due to
volcanic activity
Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa and Mt. Fujiyama in
Japan are examples of such mountains.
Volcanic mountains have a hole in the top
middle where the lava comes out just as the
experimental figure of a volcano shown.

A plateau is an elevated flat land. It is a flat topped table land
standing above the surrounding area.
A plateau may have one or more sides with step slopes.
The height of plateaus often varies from few hundred meters
to several thousand meters.
The Deccan plateau in India is one of the oldest plateaus.
The East African Plateaus in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda
and the western plateau of Australia are other examples.

PLAINS
Plains are large stretches of flat land.
They are , generally, not more than 200 meters
above main sea level.
Some plains are externally level.
Most of the plains are formed by rivers and their
tributes.
Generally, plains are very fertile

LANDFORMS AND THE PEOPLE
Humans have been living on different kinds of
lands forms in different ways . Life is difficult in
mountainous areas .
Plains provide much easy conditions of life.
There are many way to live in plains they can
make roads, house, or easy to grow crops.

FOLD MOUNTAINS
The Himalayan mountains and the alps are young
fold mountains with rugged relief and high conical
peaks.
The Aravali rang in India is one of the oldest fold
mountains systems in the world.
The Appalachians in north America and the Ural
mountains in Russia have rounded features and low
elevation . They are very old fold mountain.

LAND FORM
MOUNTAINS
A mountains is any natural elevation of the earth surface.
1. The mountain may have a small summit and a broad bas.
2. It is consider higher than the surrounding area.
3. Some mountains are even higher than the clouds.
4. In some mountains, there are permanently frozen rivers of
ice, they are called Glaciers.
The Siachen Glacier in Kashmir is the second longest
World’s on-polar areas
MOUNTAINS
FOLD MOUNTAINS
The Himalayan mountains and the alps are young
fold mountains with rugged relief and high conical
peaks.
The Aravali rang in India is one of the oldest fold
mountains systems in the world.
The Appalachians in north America and the Ural
mountains in Russia have rounded features and low
elevation . They are very old fold mountain.
FOLD MOUNTAINS
BLOCK MOUNTAINS
Block Mountains are crated when large area
are broken and displaced vertically.
The Rhine valley and the Vosges mountain
in Europe are examples of such mountain
system
The mountain has a flat top
BLOCK MOUNTAINS
VOLCANIC MOUNTAINS
Volcanic Mountains are formed due to
volcanic activity
Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa and Mt. Fujiyama in
Japan are examples of such mountains.
Volcanic mountains have a hole in the top
middle where the lava comes out just as the
experimental figure of a volcano shown.

PLATEAU
A plateau is an elevated flat land. It is a flat topped table land
standing above the surrounding area.
A plateau may have one or more sides with step slopes.
The height of plateaus often varies from few hundred meters
to several thousand meters.
The Deccan plateau in India is one of the oldest plateaus.
The East African Plateaus in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda
and the western plateau of Australia are other examples.
PLATEAU
PLAINS
Plains are large stretches of flat land.
They are , generally, not more than 200 meters
above main sea level.
Some plains are externally level.
Most of the plains are formed by rivers and their
tributes.
Generally, plains are very fertile

NORTHERN PLAINS
SOUTHERN PLAINS
LANDFORMS AND THE PEOPLE
Humans have been living on different kinds of
lands forms in different ways . Life is difficult in
mountainous areas .
Plains provide much easy conditions of life.
There are many way to live in plains they can
make roads, house, or easy to grow crops.

INFORMATION OF LAND FORM FEATURES
You must have seen some of the land form features as
shown in the figure.
The earth has an infinite variety of land form
Some part of the lithosphere maybe rugged and some flat.
These landform are a result of two process.
You will be amazed to know that the ground you are
standing is slowly moving.
Within the earth, a continuous movement is taking place.
LAND FORM
MOUNTAINS
A mountains is any natural elevation of the earth surface.
1. The mountain may have a small summit and a broad bas.
2. It is consider higher than the surrounding area.
3. Some mountains are even higher than the clouds.
4. In some mountains, there are permanently frozen rivers of
ice, they are called Glaciers.
The Siachen Glacier in Kashmir is the second longest
World’s on-polar areas
MOUNTAINS
FOLD MOUNTAINS
The Himalayan mountains and the alps are young
fold mountains with rugged relief and high conical
peaks.
The Aravali rang in India is one of the oldest fold
mountains systems in the world.
The Appalachians in north America and the Ural
mountains in Russia have rounded features and low
elevation . They are very old fold mountain.
FOLD MOUNTAINS
BLOCK MOUNTAINS
Block Mountains are crated when large area
are broken and displaced vertically.
The Rhine valley and the Vosges mountain
in Europe are examples of such mountain
system
The mountain has a flat top
BLOCK MOUNTAINS
VOLCANIC MOUNTAINS
Volcanic Mountains are formed due to
volcanic activity
Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa and Mt. Fujiyama in
Japan are examples of such mountains.
Volcanic mountains have a hole in the top
middle where the lava comes out just as the
experimental figure of a volcano shown.
VOLCANIC MOUNTAINS
ICELAND VOLCANOES
PLATEAU
A plateau is an elevated flat land. It is a flat topped table land
standing above the surrounding area.
A plateau may have one or more sides with step slopes.
The height of plateaus often varies from few hundred meters
to several thousand meters.
The Deccan plateau in India is one of the oldest plateaus.
The East African Plateaus in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda
and the western plateau of Australia are other examples.
PLATEAU
PLAINS
Plains are large stretches of flat land.
They are , generally, not more than 200 meters
above main sea level.
Some plains are externally level.
Most of the plains are formed by rivers and their
tributes.
Generally, plains are very fertile
PLAINS
NORTHERN PLAINS
SOUTHERN PLAINS
LANDFORMS AND THE PEOPLE
Humans have been living on different kinds of
lands forms in different ways . Life is difficult in
mountainous areas .
Plains provide much easy conditions of life.
There are many way to live in plains they can
make roads, house, or easy to grow crops.
People use to pollute water or nature
