Answer:
About 23 percent of incoming solar energy is absorbed in the atmosphere by water vapor, dust, and ozone, and 48 percent passes through the atmosphere and is absorbed by the surface. Of the 340 watts per square meter of solar energy that falls on the Earth, 29% is reflected back into space, primarily by clouds, but also by other bright surfaces and the atmosphere itself. About 23% of incoming energy is absorbed in the atmosphere by atmospheric gases, dust, and other particles. The remaining 48% is absorbed at the surface
The right option is a. contour interval
The difference in elevation between the highest and lowest contour lines on a topographical map is called contour interval.
A contour interval is the vertical distance between the two contour lines (highest and lowest) in a topographical map. The contour interval is usually stated explicitly on the right-hand lower part in every map. 20 feet for a 1:24,000 map scale is the frequently used contour interval and different contour intervals is available for different maps.
