Across
  1. 2. are flat and broad land areas that have no great changes in elevation when measured with reference to the mean sea level.
  2. 3. Almost similar to mesa as it has a flat-topped hill and steep sides and are formed in arid to semi-aride conditions.
  3. 6. Study of the flow of matter
  4. 8. Land situated between hills or mountains
  5. 10. Are landforms that are controlled by geological processes that form them and continually act on them after their formation.
  6. 12. Last and innermost layer which is separated into the liquid outer core and the solid inner core.
  7. 14. also known as table lands or flat-topped mountains, are portion of lands elevated thousands of feet above their surroundings.
  8. 15. Deep ravine between cliffs that is often carved from the landscape by a river, wind, or glacier.
  9. 17. Are defined as the natural phyisical features on the surface of Earth.
  10. 19. is typically a low-lying triangular area located at the mouth of rivers where it meets an ocean seas, or estuaries.
  11. 20. Elevated portions of lands smaller than mountains
Down
  1. 1. is a bend in a sinuous watercourse of river. It is formed when moving water in a stream erodes the out banks then widens its valley.
  2. 4. Is the study of the current terrain features of a region and the graphic representation of a particular landform on a map.
  3. 5. outermost layer of Eath. Thinnest layer because it only makes up about one percent of Earth.
  4. 7. also called byland or biland, is a piece of land that projects into a body of water and is connected to the mainland by an isthmus.
  5. 9. It is the field that protects us from harmful rays emitted by the sun.
  6. 11. is outer solid part of the planet include Earth's crust as well as the underlying cool, dense and rigid upper part of the upper mantle.
  7. 13. Are mounds or small hills made up of sand. May be dome-shaped, crescent-shaped, star-shaped, linear-shaped, or parabolic.
  8. 16. Is a predominantly silt-sized sediment formed by the accumulation of windblown dust.
  9. 18. largest layer of Earth. Composed of iron, aluminum, calcium, magnesium, silicon, and oxygen.
