54. A stack is the column rock near a coast. THese are formed by the action of the waves in the sea coact. These are tall and single structures standing in the sea.
55. D. Convergent boundaries. These plates move into one another and thus undergoing subduction which results in the formation of many hotspots too.
56. B. An artesian well will have its own pressure inside. This is because the saturation level will be at height than the well surface, so due to the gravity and pressure the water come out of the well without any pump.
57. E. Reverse fault is formed because of the compressional forces acting on it.
58. C. Rectangular drainage pattern is in which the jointed rocks has the streams.
59. C. Columbia plateau
60. D. Up fold is called anticline.
