A landscape in which a layer of limestone close to the surface erodes into deep valleys, caverns, and sinkholes is called Karst topography. Correct answer:D. This type of landscape is characterized by underground drainage systems with sinkholes and caves.

Karst systems are very vulnerable to ground water pollution due to the relatively rapid rate of water flow and the lack of a natural filtration system
