- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
When contour lines are closer to each other on a topographic map, it indicates a steeper terrain. Contour lines represent points of equal elevation, and the spacing between them reflects the slope of the land. When the lines are close together, it means that the elevation is changing rapidly, indicating a steep slope. Conversely, when contour lines are farther apart, it suggests a flatter terrain with a gentle slope. Therefore, the statement that if contour lines are closer to each other, the terrain is steeper is true.Rate this question:
