Relief

I wrote:

Steep sided hills.
Concave slope hills in the middle as the slope becomes gentler as height decreases.
Valley floor
Mountains in background
Possibly plateau due to a house situated on top of the hill.
Several peaks and a possible small hill saddle.

By the way, i got the pie chart question wrong loool. I calculated 20 degrees by mistake -.-. Oh well 1 mark.

Aha who cares its over now. I estimated the worse i can get is 57/60 (theres another question about powerlines in richland) so no worries :).

Anyone know the grade boundaries for an A* overall?

i wrote similar things to padapop but i also commented on the fact that the hill in the foreground was much steeper than the hills in the background.

the answers were there and it was so hard to use ur own words :S

for affecting the enviornment, i wrote less air pollution but also more visual pollution
for energy supplies i wrote they increase only slightly because although windmills are renewable, wind is variable (i wrote something along those lines, not exactly the same)

what did u write for excavation or quarries in the same table? did u get neither as well like the powerlines?
