natural features

Natural features are the physical characteristics found on Earth’s surface, created by natural processes. They include mountains formed by tectonic activity, rivers carving valleys, forests covering large areas with dense trees, lakes filled with freshwater, beaches along coastlines, deserts with sparse vegetation, and glaciers composed of ice. These features shape the environment and influence local ecosystems, climate, and human activities. Understanding natural features helps us appreciate Earth's diversity and the forces that have shaped its landscape over millions of years.
