What is a plateau? (5 points) a A large area of flat or gently rolling land with low relief b A raised, flat-surfaced area bound

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

A plateau is a raised, flat-surfaced area bound on one or more sides by cliffs or steep slopes.

Explanation:

Earth is a planet that has all sorts of different types of landforms. Some are enormous and occupy thousands of square km while some are very small and barely noticeable. One interesting landform that varries from medium to large size is the plateau.

The plateaus are flat or relatively flat areas that are on higher elevation. They differ in size, but also in elevation, and a plateau can be anywhere from 600 meters above sea level (like Pelagonija)to the highest ones that are above 4000 meters of elevation (like the Tibetan plateau). In some cases the plateaus are the highest landforms int heir surroundings and they bordered cliffs and steep slopes, in some cases it is a mixture of higher mountains on one side and cliffs and steep slopes on the other, and in some cases, they are fully surrounded by mountains, which is why people tend to confuse them with valleys if they are not very high.

How were the fossil symbols and mountain belts helpful in deciding where to move the continents

givi [52]

Fossils symbol and mountain belts are very important for geologists in deciding where to move the continents.
Fossils and mountain belts can give the geologist ideas about the history of the certain continents and what are the animals that stayed and died in that place.
Both can also help the geologists to identify if the particular continent is a safe place to live on because the animals of a long time ago stayed on that place. So maybe the place is safe from water high tide and is not a moving plates.

Why do mapmakers have to choose between showing the correct land shapes and distances on the earth?

Olin [163]

The mapmakers have to make this choice because of the shape of our planet and because there is still not a method as to how to have both the land shapes and distances to be precise at the same time.

The shape of the earth is the factor that is not allowing (at least for now) that we have both correct land shapes and precise distances on the maps of the Earth. Because the Earth has a rounded shape, as we move further away from the Equator, the shapes are deforming more and more, or rather they are stretching more and more which makes them appear much bigger than they actually are, thus giving us an unrealistic picture of the size of some of the places on our planet.
