प्रश्न
Why are the Eastern Highlands called the Great Dividing Range?
उत्तर
The Eastern Highlands are also called the Great Dividing Range because the mountains form the main watershed of Australia. A number of Australia’s principal rivers originate here. The Snowy River flows down the steep eastern slope while the Darling, Lachlan, and Murrumbidgee Rivers flow down the western slope and join the Murray River.
