There are numerous types of landforms in North America. Mountains, deserts, basins, and lakes can all be found in North America.

Seriously? In answer to "What kids of... are found ...". All I can answer is "those born of Nanny goats".

Are you people serious? Anybody with half a brain could find the answer to "What kinds of landforms are found in N.America" in Wikipedia. Deserts, to my knowledge are not "landforms", landforms, in general, describe topography, 'desert' describes an area, regardless of topography, that suffers from extremely low, to almost no, rainfall. e.g., The Gobi desert is a landform characterized by a plateau. The Atacama desert in Chile, has topographic features, that are mountainous, y'know the Andes.

BTW the answer projected, besides the error about deserts being a landform, left out out deltas, alluvial plains, escarpments, plateaus. plains, ravines, valleys, super volcano calderas (Yellowstone). Glacier debris (Long Island).

What about a Mesa or a Butte?

Without a precise definition of "landform", it's impossible to be 100% correct. Lakes, seem an oxymoron in the case of "landform", the landform responsible for retaining the water, is possibly, either, a basin, a depression, a caldera, or, amongst still more, a meteor crater that happened to be in a basin, that was also in a depression, that happened to be on a plateau, which meant that a lot of rain falling on the plateau collected in one spot.

The four basic landforms are mountains, hills, plains and plateaus. There are many other landforms, but these are the four most basic in geography.

Mountains are high, steep, rugged areas that rise to an elevation of at least 1,000 feet. Hills are areas that look like mountains but are smaller and more rounded. Plains are flat, broad areas. Plateaus are basically elevated plains.
