The landforms in the interior of the continents and at their margins mostly differ because of the difference in geological activity.

Explanation:

The landforms that are found in the interior of the continents tend to be old. They also are mostly consisted of sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. In general the erosion is much more evident and dominant, thus the landforms also are with lower elevations when compared with the ones on the edges. This is due to the lack of geological activity as the interiors of the continents tend to be far away from the plate boundaries.

The landforms on the edges of the continents tend to be younger in general. The reason for that are the subduction zones and intense geological activity. The intense geological activity is due to the close proximity of the plate boundaries. The landforms tend to be higher in general, and volcanic arcs are also a common sight.

QUESTION 5 The elevation at which a parcel of air cools to its dew point temperature is called the a lifting condensation level
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

A. condensation level

Explanation:

  • What usually happens when a parcel of air cools more slowly the air in motion, leads to the formation of clouds as moisture accumulation takes place. Thus the vertical ascent of air reduces its capacity to store or hold water and hence condensation occurs at dew point.
  • The rising parcel of air cools and descents down the original dew point and results in net condensation. Thus the lifted parcel of air reaches o its 100% concerning Adiabatic cooling.
