What is the average elevation (in metres) of the Eastern Ghats?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 600 - 610.
The Eastern Ghats, a discontinuous chain of mountains running parallel to the eastern coast of India, have an average elevation of approximately 600 meters (2,000 feet). While some peaks, like Arma Konda (1,680 m), are significantly higher, the range is generally lower and more eroded than the Western Ghats due to the dissection by major east-flowing rivers such as the Mahanadi, Godavari, and Krishna.
