The highest point within territory controlled by the nation of Australia is Mawson Peak on Heard Island, at 2745 m.\n\nThe highest point on mainland Australia is Mt. Kosciuszko at 2228 m.\n\nI'll bet your teachers are looking for Kosciuszko as the answer though.

(a) Largest city is seoul, population= 10,231,000\n(b) Largest reptile: it depends, some say Komodo dragon that weighs 300 pounds and 10 ft long,\nsome say australian salt water crocodile that reaches upto 23 ft in length, some say leather back sea turtle ie 8 ft long and weighs 1500 pounds.\n(c) Known deepest part of ocean is Mindanao Trench( west Pacific) 11516 meters deep. However, it is believed that Mariana Trench 11021m near Guam is the deepest part.. It was first pinpointed by HM survey ship Challenger in 1951.

There are several beaches which are claimed to be the "World's longest", including \n\nCox's Bazar, Bangladesh (120kms), \nFraser Island beach, 90 Mile Beach in Australia and 90 Mile Beach in New Zealand and Long Beach, Washington (which is about 30km). \n\nWasaga Beach, Ontario on Georgian Bay claims to have the world's longest freshwater beach.\n\n The Marina Beach at Chennai, India, is the second longest beach in the world.

The highest sea cliffs in the world are those on the north coast of east Molokai, near Umilehi Point, Hawaii, USA, which descend 1,010 m. (3,300 ft.) to the sea at an average gradient of more than 1 in 1.428.\n\nthis is from the guiness book of records and hence should be correct and accurate.. here is the link;-\n\nhttp://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/content_pages/record.asp?recordid=47602

The world's deepest lake is Lake Baikal, in Siberia, Russia. The deepest point of the lake, the Olkhon Crevice, has a depth of 1,637 m (5,371 ft), of which 1,181 m (3,875 ft) are below sea level. It is also the oldest freshwater lake on Earth, having formed between 20 and 25 million years ago. Baikal also contains one-fifth of all the world’s fresh surface water! The lake is roughly crescent-shaped, 636 km (395  miles) long, with a surface area of 31,500 km² (12,200 miles²).

Ocean are large masses of waters connecting continents There are three:  The Atlantic, The Indian, and The Pacific with the Pacific being the largest. all smaller bodies of water surrounding islands, inlets, peninsulas, etc. are known as seas or gulfs depending on the site some are even called bays if their small enough.  Size does matter as the Yellow sea would be a straight if it were smaller in size.  FYI it has nothing to do with depth because the Puget sound is over 4000 ft deep and yet it isn't a sea or and ocean.

You would be at 40 46.12'S, 106 41.52'E which is in the Indian ocean. The closest land mass is 700 Miles North East (Western Australia).  \n\nThere is almost Nothing near this location but water. \nPerhaps an uncharted Island?\n\nCheck it out with google earth.\n\nYou can use the measure tool to find the point where the straight line will ROTATE like a spinning compass because the line always shows the shortest distance.\n\nAs the crow flys (or swims in this example), these two points are 12,414.94 Miles Apart.

The Dead Sea is the lowest exposed point on the Earth's surface. It is on the border between the West Bank, Israel, and Jordan on the Jordan Rift Valley. This body of water is the deepest hypersaline lake in the world.\nThe Dead Sea is 67 km long, up to 18 km wide and 799 m below sea level in depth at its deepest point. The surface of the Dead Sea is at an elevation of 394.6 m (1269 ft) below sea level (2005 figure).

The southern, by far. The majority of the world's land,\nespecially Asia, is located in the nothern hemisphere.\nAlmost everything from Chile to Mozambique is water,\nexcept for Australia.

I think your question is not correct. It should be world's longest beach, as beaches are  not meassured by its lenght and area. I have given below the longest  beach details. \n\nThere are several beaches which are claimed to be the "World's longest", the first being the natural beach at  Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh (120kms), is the world's longest natural sea beach (120 km). It is located 152 km south of Chittagong. \n\nOther long beaches are -\nFraser Island beach, 90 Mile Beach in Australia \n90 Mile Beach in New Zealand and \nLong Beach, Washington (which is about 30km). \n\nHowever for your information I would say - Cancun, Mexico, the world s largest beach resort destination in the world.-

The Red Sea is not the lowest point on earth.  However, I do believe that you are thinking of the Dead Sea!  The Dead Sea is one of the lowest points on earth, and water that flows into it does not flow back out (it is called the dead see because it is so salty that no living thing can survive in it.  It's so salty that it actually makes it easier to float!)  The actual lowest point on earth is Mariana's trench, which is in the pacific ocean near Southeast Asia.  I believe that the depth is around 28000 feet (the last time I knew, no submarine had ever touched the bottom, but they did come to within about 3 feet of the bottom).  I hope that that sufficiently answered your question.

the great barrier reef is the world's largest coral reef and one of australia's most popular tourist attractions. although its name suggests one reef, the great barrier reef is a chain of more than 2500 reefs. it also includes many small islands. the reefs and islands extend in a nearly unbroken chain for abt 2010 kms. along australia's north east coast. the reefs are composed of abt. 400 species of corals of all shapes and colours. the waters around the great barrier reef are warm all year round. the warm waters and the beauty of  the coral formations attract swimmers and skin divers . the great barrier reef area has a number of tourist resorts.

its located in Australia but here are some other things:\n\n\nLake Eyre, a great salt lake of tectonic origin, lies asymmetrically in the south-western corner of the closed inland drainage basin in the heart of the Australian continent. With an area of 1,140,000 km2, Lake Eyre Basin is the largest Australian drainage division apart from the Western Plateau and is one of the largest areas of internal drainage in the world. The lake, whose lowest parts lie 15.2 m below sea level, consists of two sections. Lake Eyre North, 144 km long and 77 km wide, is joined by the narrow Goyder Channel to Lake Eyre South, which is 64 km long and 24 km in width. Not so long ago it was considered to be permanently dry, but the last forty years have witnessed some twenty flood events, with the most spectacular fillings occurring in 1950, 1974 and 1984. \nThe deepest region of Lake Eyre North is the eastern part of Belt Bay in which bottom levels were found the lowest point on the Australian continent. The floor of the lake is very flat, therefore the definition of the exact location is rather difficult. The shores of the lake are well defined and consist of sand dunes, cliffs of eroded gypseous loam or low rocky escarpments. The south-eastern coastline, which consists of sand cliffs, is being rapidly cut back, with an erosion rate in the order of 5 m per flooding. \nTrustworthy data on the filling of Lake Eyre South are reported for the floodings of 1938, 1955, 1963, 1968, 1973, 1974, 1975, 1976 and 1984. In 1984 Lake Eyre South overflowed to Lake Eyre North. In 1974 water flowed from Lake Eyre North to Lake Eyre South between March and October when an equilibrium level was obtained. Large quantities of salt, estimated at 30 million tons (7.5% of Lake Eyre North content), were transferred into Lake Eyre South during this event, creating, in its lowest portion, a salt crust up to 290 mm thick for the first time on record. \nThe vast catchment areas of the lakes are only marginally desert and as such are very responsive to even slight variations of rainfall. Considering the long term trends of climatic change is therefore essential. Almost all the non-desert parts of the Lake Eyre Basin area are used for low-intensity grazing of sheep for wool and beef cattle. The very variable rainfall is the most important factor for provision of feed, and low rainfall seasons determine stocking rates. Grazing capacity is directly related to the distribution of artesian wells and excavated tanks. The area of irrigated agriculture is insignificant and restricted to pasture on lands bordering other divisions
