Answer: The Great Plains are a large plateau featuring grassland, prairie, mountains, hills, and valleys, depending on what part of the Plains you are on.

Explanation: The plains are wide, flat stretches of land. They are not more than 200 metres above the mean sea level. Usually, plains are very fertile. Hence, these plains are parts of the earth which are very densely populated.
