Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Hummock refers to a small hill, knoll, or mound of earth/ice (an elevated piece of land).
Ridge, Hill, and Upland are all related to elevated landforms (synonymous in nature).

Ditch means a narrow channel dug in the ground, typically for drainage (a depression or low ground), which is the exact opposite of an elevated mound.
