Answer:

mesa i think based on the information i found

Step-by-step explanation:

Buttes are tall, flat-topped, steep-sided towers of rock. Buttes were created through the process of erosion, the gradual wearing away of earth by water, wind, and ice. ... Most geographers say a butte is taller than it is wide, while a mesa is a much larger, slightly less elevated feature.
