    To the east?

    • Peidmont

    • Mountains

    • Coastal Plain

    Correct Answer
    A. Coastal Plain
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Coastal Plain. The question asks for the direction "to the east," and out of the three options given (Peidmont, Mountains, Coastal Plain), the Coastal Plain is the only one that is located in the eastern direction. The Peidmont and Mountains are not specific to any direction, so they can be located in different directions. Therefore, the Coastal Plain is the most suitable answer for the given question.

    Correct Answer
    coastal plain
    Explanation
    The outermost part of the coastal plain is called the coastal plain itself. This refers to the area of low-lying land that runs along the coast and is typically characterized by flat or gently sloping terrain. It is the transition zone between the ocean and the inland areas, consisting of sedimentary deposits such as sand, clay, and gravel. The coastal plain is influenced by various coastal processes, including erosion, deposition, and the effects of tides and waves. It is an important ecosystem that supports diverse plant and animal life, as well as human activities such as agriculture, fishing, and tourism.

    The area that seperates the coastal plain from the peidmont region is called the...

    Correct Answer
    fall line
    Explanation
    The area that separates the coastal plain from the piedmont region is called the fall line. The fall line is a geographic boundary where the land transitions from the relatively flat coastal plain to the more hilly and elevated piedmont region. This transition is often characterized by a series of waterfalls or rapids, as rivers flowing from the higher piedmont encounter the lower-lying coastal plain. The fall line is significant as it can impact the development of cities and industries, as well as create natural barriers to navigation and transportation along the rivers.
