<h2>Answer:</h2>

Californian San Andreas fault continents is moving relative to one another.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

California is between two plates namely the Northern American Plate and the Pacific Plate that are moving slowly past each other. The Pacific plate moves in the northwest direction at the rate of 46 mm/year with reference to the Northern American Plate.  

It is believed that the motion was triggered by the strike-slip earthquake that occurred on the fault San Andreas. The fault by nature is a transform fault which extends approximately 1200 kilometer through California. There are three segments dividing the faults each with different degree of earthquakes.

What's the major difference between topographic map and other maps is that a topographic map shows
Veronika [31]

Answer:

The landforms and elevations

Explanation:

A topographic map or topo map uses a system of contour lines to show the different landforms in a particular place. The landforms thereby helps to delineate the relief of a particular region.

Contour lines are lines in a topographical map that joins places with the same elevation. The sequences or patterning of contours reveals a lot about a terrain. When contours are close together, an area can best be predicted to have a steep slope but contours far apart shows a gentle terrain.

Topographical maps are usually the base maps for other types of maps because of their importance.
