  1. Do you know how to Google search on the internet?

    I did a Google search using the following keywords

    "maine" "land" "regions", and found the answer in ten seconds.

    Coastal Lowlands are a strip of land along the irregular coastline seldom more than 10 to 20 miles wide.  It probes more than 50 miles up into the Penobscot valley.   Occasionally the lowlands disappear altogether.

    The hilly belt which stretches across New England and the Maritime provinces of Canada southeast of and roughly parallel with the northern end of the Appalachian chain, is the transitional zone between the coast plain and the mountain region.  In Maine it varies in width between about 30 miles in the southwest and 80 miles in the northeast.

    The mountain region constituting the northeastern end of the Appalachian Mountain system, cuts about 150 miles into Maine as a lower extension of the White Mountain range of New Hampshire.

    The uplands, a broad plateau sloping toward the north and east, form a relatively high flat region beyond the mountains.  The eastern portion of this zone provides the bulk of Maine's famous potato crop.  The western portion is heavily forested, primarily with softwoods and is largely uninhabited.
