If a mountain peak is 500 meters above sea level, what would the contour lines around it show?Increasing values toward the centerDecreasing values toward the centerRandom valuesEqual values throughoutQuestion 4 of 205. What does the spacing of contour lines indicate about the slope of the land?Close lines indicate a gentle slopeWide-spaced lines indicate a steep slopeClose lines indicate a steep slopeSpacing does not matterQuestion 5 of 206. Why is it important to know the contour interval of a map?To measure land ownershipTo determine the height difference between contour linesTo identify road networksTo locate water bodiesQuestion 6 of 207. How can a contour map help trekkers and mountaineers?By predicting weather changesBy showing the safest and easiest routesBy indicating the type of vegetationBy displaying tourist attractionsQuestion 7 of 208. In which direction does the altitude of the Katraj-Diveghat range decrease?NorthSouthEastWestQuestion 8 of 209. How does a contour map represent a river valley?With concentric circlesWith 'V'-shaped lines pointing upstreamWith evenly spaced horizontal linesWith broken linesQuestion 9 of 2010.
