Question
1. Structural Plains
• The internal or endogenetic forces of the Earth formed these
plains. These plains come into existence when the continental
shell emerges due to internal forces of the Earth. These
extensive lowlands are bordering all the continents. The
Malabar coastal plain of Kerala in India is formed by the
upliftment of continental shelf. Coastal plains of Belgium.
Holland and Germany are also good examples.
• Sometimes, plains are also formed by structural depressions
of extensive lowlands. For example, The Great Siberian Plain of
Russia, Great Plains of U.SA.
