Landform Patterns

Fold Mountain

E.g Rocky Mountains

Built from thick layers of sedimentary rock

Where plates collide

Ancient Shields

Many around the Pacific Ring Of Fire

Located on plate boundaries

Plants and Lowlands

Sedimentary Rock

Lowlands: Plains along coastlines

Plains: broad areas of level land

E.g Great plains-St. Lawrence Lowlands

Active Volcanoes

Carves out land from erosion

Later, it forms into metamorphic rock (changes)

Mostly made of igneous rock (solidified magma)

Created by volcanic activity
