globe. Also including some that are not bumpy.

 The

world also contains large amounts of water. These large
amounts of water are called, bodies of water. However, not all

 Throughout

this presentation, you will learn about each type of
landform and body of water that is around the world.

 Waterfall:

a cascade of water falling from a height, formed
when a river or stream flows over a precipice or steep
incline.

 Glacier:

Summary:


Throughout this presentation, you should have learned some
characteristics, as well as a visual of what each landform and
body of water look like.



Landforms give the earth natural barriers, vegetation, and
also shelter. Landforms also give the earth pathways to
exploration.



The bodies of water around the earth provide life. Without
water on the world, there would be little to no life forms.

two,

It is important to remember the importance of
landforms and water. As stated above, without the
life could be nonexistent.
