GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -Landforms are patterns made by the shape of the earth’s surface and they can be anything from mountains to valleys and plains. Textures are also made by the shape of the earth’s surface as it is often a mix between highlands and lowlands. Elevations show how high something is above sea level on earth.

Detailed explanation-2: -The distinctive characteristic of a topographic map is the use of elevation contour lines to show the shape of the Earth’s surface. Elevation contours are imaginary lines connecting points having the same elevation on the surface of the land above or below a reference surface, which is usually mean sea level.

Detailed explanation-3: -Topography refers to the craters on the surface, rivers, valleys, and mountains. In topographic maps, the distinguishing factor is the elevation. Contour lines are shown in the topographic maps. Contour lines are lines of equal elevation. Topography incorporates artificial and natural features.
