Zorluk: KolayRelief and Major Landforms of Africa

Arrange the following major African landforms in order of their geographical position, from the northernmost feature to the southernmost feature.

  1. 1Atlas Mountains
  2. 2Tibesti Massif
  3. 3Ethiopian Highlands
  4. 4Drakensberg Range

Cevap

Atlas Mountains → Tibesti Massif → Ethiopian Highlands → Drakensberg Range
The correct sequence places the Atlas Mountains first as they form the northern rim of Africa in the Maghreb. The Tibesti Massif comes next in the central Sahara. The Ethiopian Highlands follow further south in the Horn of Africa, and the Drakensberg Range is last as it forms the high escarpment of Southern Africa.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the geographical region and latitude of each landform
Atlas Mountains lie in North-Western Africa (approx. 32°N); Tibesti Massif lies in the Sahara of Chad (approx. 20°N); Ethiopian Highlands lie in East Africa (approx. 9°N); Drakensberg Range lies in Southern Africa (approx. 29°S).
Establishing absolute latitudinal positions allows for accurate north-to-south sequencing.
2
Sequence the features from north to south
1st: Atlas Mountains (North Africa), 2nd: Tibesti Massif (Sahara/Central-North), 3rd: Ethiopian Highlands (East Africa), 4th: Drakensberg Range (Southern Africa).
This places the landforms in correct descending latitudinal order across the African continent.
