What are the elevations and main features of the various terrains

Plains 0-500 m.

Plains are flat, vast areas with low altitudes, mostly between 0 and 500 meters above sea level, and are generally in coastal areas.

The altitude of 0-200 meters is called the low plain, and the 200-500 meters is called the high plain.

Plateau 1000 meters or more.

Altitude. Generally above 1000 meters, the area is vast, the terrain is open, the surrounding area is bounded by obvious steep slopes, and the relatively complete large-area uplift area is called the plateau. The main difference between the plateau and the plain is the higher altitude, which distinguishes it from the mountains with a complete large area of uplift.

Hills within 500 meters.

Hill refers to the earth's surface morphology is gently undulating, the absolute height is within 500 meters, the relative height is not more than 200 meters, and the slope is composed of various rock types. The slope is generally gentle, and the cutting is broken, without a certain direction.

Basin. Basin-like terrain with high (mountains or plateaus) and low (plains or hills) in the middle is called a basin.

It is surrounded by mountains and plateaus, and the basin-like terrain is plains or hills in the middle.

Mountainous terrain 500 meters or more.

Mountainous land refers to the highland above 500 meters above sea level, with great undulations, steep slopes, deep valleys, and generally vein-like distribution. Mountains are a region where many mountains are located, different from a single mountain or mountain range, the difference between mountains and hills is that the height difference between mountains is greater than that of hills, and the total height of the plateau is sometimes larger than that of mountains, sometimes smaller, but the height difference on the plateau is smaller, which is the difference between mountains and plateaus, but there may also be mountains on the plateau in general, such as the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

Wrong, man, that's not what the history and society books say.

The topographical characteristics of the plateau are: the terrain is relatively low in elevation and quite high in altitude. According to the morphology of the plateau surface, the plateau can be divided into several types:

One is a plateau with a flatter top, such as the Inner Mongolia Plateau in China; One is a plateau where the ground is quite undulating and the top surface is still quite broad. Plateaus are widely distributed, and together with the basins they surround, they cover about 45% of the Earth's land area. For example, in China's Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, the formation of highlands has a great relationship with the formation of the earth.

The main plateaus in China:There are four major plateaus in China, which are concentrated in the terrain.

1. On the second ladder, they are: the Loess Plateau, the Inner Mongolia Plateau, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is high, with an average altitude of more than 4,000 meters above sea level, and many snow-capped mountains and glaciers. The Inner Mongolia Plateau is part of the Mongolian Plateau, with an altitude of 1000 meters to 1400 meters.

The Loess Plateau is a world-famous large-scale loess covered plateau, inclined from northwest to southeast, with an altitude of 800 meters and 2500 meters, vertical and horizontal ravines, little vegetation, and serious soil erosion are rare in the world. The Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau has rugged terrain, with an altitude of 1,000 meters and 2,000 meters, with many canyons and typical karst landforms.

The highest land altitude in China: Mount Everest.

Mount Everest, referred to as "Mount Everest", is located at the junction of China and Nepal, and is the main peak of the Himalayas, with an altitude of meters, and is the highest peak in the world.

The lowest land altitude in China: Turpan Basin, the depression of Ayding Lake at the bottom of the basin is lower than the sea level, which is the lowest point of China's land.
