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.

The cosmic address of the Earth would begin with the house address, the name of our planet, Earth. Next, we would put our street name, Inner Solar System. Then, we would choose our city, Solar System of the Sun. After that, we would add our state or province. This would be the equivalent of the Solar Neighborhood which consists of all stars within 15 light years of the Sun and that include mostly cool and small red dwarf stars.

How would you describe the delegates to the philadelphia convention
marusya05 [52]

<u>Answer:</u>

The Philadelphia convention was attended by all white men. Most delegates to the convention were young men aged between 20 and 30. Some re-owned political figures also attended the convention. The delegates who attended the convention were from mixed backgrounds.

About half the delegates were college graduates and men aged more than 30 were investment bankers or had an interest in the stock market. The delegates were wealthy and educated and so it is believed that the convention did not include the entire American society.
