A is like a plain except that it is cut by a steep canyon?
A narrow chasm with steep cliff walls, cut into the earth by running water; a gorge.
Sorry, I can't provide the lyrics to "Be Still Moses" by Steep Canyon Rangers. However, I can summarize the song's themes or discuss its meaning if you'd like!
A submarine canyon refers to a steep-sided valley cut into the sea floor of the continental slope. It is formed through turbidity currents that carve out the submarine canyons in the continental shelf.
A plain is a flat landform, like you can see in the Midwest. Mountains are huge and steep.
A canyon is a deep valley with steep sides typically carved by a river over time, while a cliff is a vertical or nearly vertical rock face. Canyons are larger landforms that can stretch for miles, while cliffs are smaller, often found along coastlines or mountain edges.
A "fissure" is a crack or break in something. You might use the word "fissure' to describe a steep-sided canyon, something that looks like a crack in the mountain. You would not use "fissure" to describe the mountain itself.
Mesas and canyons are alike in that they are both landforms resulting from erosion by water and wind. Mesas are elevated flat-topped areas with steep sides, while canyons are deep, narrow valleys with steep sides. Both mesas and canyons are typically found in arid or semi-arid regions.
Basins and canyons are both valleys. A basin is a wide valley shaped like a bowl and a canyon is a very narrow valley with steep sides.
A canyon is a deep valley with steep sides, think of the grand canyon most famously to visualise what this is. A gorge is a deep ravine, which usually has a river running through it - though this doesn't have to be the case. Finally a valley is any depression, usually of a certain length, in the surface of the land and often contains a river. So, a canyon is a specific type of valley, with particularly steep sides. A gorge is a particularly deep depression, and will usually contain a river.
The symbol for a canyon on a map is typically represented by a series of parallel lines drawn close together with a gap between them, resembling a series of cliffs or steep walls. The lines are usually drawn perpendicular to the direction of the canyon on the map to indicate the depth and scale of the feature. This symbol helps cartographers accurately depict the presence of canyons in a visually clear and concise manner on maps.
The first Olympics was most likely plain and had competeing just like now, except without fireworks and things like that.
