Stella [2.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: Geomorphic characteristics:

Explanation:

- The high flat surface that defines a plateau can continue for hundreds or even thousands of kilometres.

- In spite of the paucity of roads, one can drive over most of that plateau, where elevations exceed 4,500 metres (about 14,760 feet).

- Plateaus dissected (eroded) by rivers have remarkably uniform maximum elevations, but their surfaces can be interrupted by deep canyons.

- In the case of some regions described as plateaus, the surface is so dissected that one does not see any flat terrain.

How does sedimentary rock form?
Flauer [41]
Clastic sedimentary rocks are made up of pieces (clasts) of pre-existing rocks. Pieces of rock are loosened by weathering, then transported to some basin or depression where sediment is trapped. If the sediment is buried deeply, it becomes compacted and cemented, forming sedimentary rock.
