Explanation:

Identify the geographic region

The question asks about the physical geography of the center of Africa.

Analyze the topography of Central Africa

The center of Africa is dominated by the Congo Basin, which is a massive sedimentary basin surrounded by highlands and plateaus. The basin floor itself is a low-lying, flat region characterized by a vast river system and tropical rainforests, forming a major river plain.

Evaluate the options

• "a river plain": This describes the low-lying, flat sedimentary basin of the Congo River system at the center of the continent.
• "a plateau": While much of Southern and Eastern Africa consists of high plateaus, the immediate center is a low-lying basin/plain.
• "mountainous": The center is not primarily mountainous.

Answer:

• a river plain (Correct answer)
• a plateau
• mountainous
