A buried layer of limestone or other Calcium rich mineral. To have this you need uplifted sea-floor
Yes, caves are landforms. They fall under the category of landforms that are created by erosion or weathering.
There is not a particular kind of limestone needed to make a canyon or valley. They and caves form through erosion of most limestones, but their development is subject to a good deal of local geological and hydrological control.
It is called a karst landscape.
Caves usually and mostly forms in sedimentary rocks. Example, Limestone.
Caves are formed by rainwater dissolving away limestone or sandstone.
natural places
The generic name for such a landscape is 'Karst', from the Slovac type-name 'kras'; and is mainly in limestone.
I am actually wondering this myself right now. I am James Zuidema and have Science homework on this. The answer is Karst topogrophy i had it on my science homework too!
The most common animal that lives in caves are bats.

A type of landscape that features caves, deep valleys, and sinkholes is called a karst landscape. Karst landscapes are formed when soluble rocks such as limestone or dolomite are eroded by water, creating unique underground drainage systems and surface features.
"Caves" - simply that... but if in limestone they are by definition part of a karst landscape.

The landscape you are referring to is likely characterized by karst topography. Karst landscapes are formed by the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, creating features like caves, deep valleys, and sinkholes. These areas often have unique water drainage systems, as water flows underground through the porous rock layers.
KARST. From a Slovenian word, the name of the world's karst type-area.
