✓

Answer

  • Like rivers, glaciers, wind, water also forms many landforms through erosion.
  • The water that goes down into the ground accumulates in the porous rock layers.
  • This water is called "groundwater" or "groundwater".
  • Dissolution occurs due to groundwater in limestone rock regions.
  • Due to this a special landscape is formed.
  • This landscape is called "Limestone Landscape" or "Karst Landscape".
  • The surface water in the joints in the limestone rock layers forms small cracks or pores.
  • They are called "sink holes" or "sink holes".
  • Due to the increasing size of such cracks, it is known as "Yuvala Dolines" "downward" and "upward" are formed.
  • When these two pillars join, the bottom of the cave forms a continuous column.
  • Which is called a cave pillar.
  • The landscape of limestone rocks formed in this way by groundwater is called "karst landscape".
