Let’s go step by step using the map and its key.
---
Question 1: What does the symbol 🟨 stand for?
Look at the “Map Key” on the right side of the map.
Find the yellow square (🟨). Next to it, it says
“Plains”.
✔ So, the symbol stands for
Plains.
---
Question 2: What is the symbol for mountains?
Again, look at the Map Key.
Find the word
“Mountains” — next to it is a brown triangle with little bumps (like a mountain peak).
✔ The symbol for mountains is the
brown bumpy triangle.
*(Note: Since we can’t draw here, in your answer you’d describe or copy that symbol from the key.)*

Question 3: What landform covers most of the northern part of the state?
Look at the top (north) of Arkansas on the map.
Most of that area is colored purple.
Check the Map Key — purple =
Ozark Mountains.
Wait — actually, looking again:
The northern part has two colors:
- Purple (Ozark Mountains) in the northwest
- Green (Ouachita Mountains) in the west-central north?
But wait — let’s check carefully.
Actually, the largest area in the *northern* part is
purple, which is labeled
Ozark Mountains in the key.
Also, note: The question says “most of the northern part”. The Ozarks cover a big chunk up there.
✔ Answer:
Ozark Mountains
*(Double-check: Yes, the purple area dominates the north.)*

Question 4: What body of water forms the eastern border of Arkansas?
Look at the east edge of Arkansas on the map.
There’s a blue line running along the border with Mississippi.
That blue line is labeled
“Mississippi River”.
✔ Answer:
Mississippi River

Question 5: In which parts of the state would you find plains?
Go back to the Map Key: Plains = yellow color.
Now look at the map — where is yellow?
Yellow is in the
eastern and southeastern part of Arkansas — near the Mississippi River and down toward Louisiana.
Also, some small patches elsewhere? But mostly the southeast.
✔ Answer:
Eastern and southeastern parts of the state

Final Answer:
1. Plains
2. Brown bumpy triangle (mountain symbol from key)
3. Ozark Mountains
4. Mississippi River
5. Eastern and southeastern parts of the state
