20. These two landform features can isolate and protect a civilization:______<br> and____
____ [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Two landforms that can isolate and protect a civilization are mountain ranges and seas. Mountain ranges block invaders as they are hard to ascend and require invades to find a detour, thus prolonging the invasion. The sea is another barrier because the sea can be dangerous and so vast that people can get easily lost.

Hope that helps!
