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.

Another kind of address would be be a relative address, such as "to the left of the school"

sasho [114]

Answer:

La conexión que se establece es que la Antártida es un territorio codiciado por las potencias hegemónicas, debido a lo que ofrece respecto a minerales y agua dulce, no es casualidad que las bases militares británicas crearon medios de transporte y apoyo logístico en zonas apropiadas para permitir el abastecimiento y traslado, no solo para los ingleses si no también para otras potencias como Estados Unidos,  en disputa por el petróleo y los minerales.
