    1. Physical maps use colours to indicate different altitudes and landforms. Green usually represents low-lying areas like plains, yellow shows moderately elevated regions such as plateaus and brown or dark shades indicate high altitudes like hills and mountains. Blue represents water bodies. These colour codes help readers quickly understand the topography of a region, including elevation and physical structure. By referring to the map legend, students can easily identify and compare various landforms and elevations across India.
