Topography
The study of the shape of the land determined by elevation and landforms like mountains, rivers, and valleys
Real World Example
Imagine trying to navigate your way through a cluttered room in the dark, where you have to step over toys, dodge furniture, and find your path without bumping into anything. This is similar to how topography describes the landscape, providing a "map" of the land's elevations and its features like mountains, rivers, and valleys, which influence how we travel across it. Just as you mentally map out the obstacles in the room to move smoothly, topography maps out the natural features of the Earth, guiding us through its physical highs and lows.
