Answer:

The answer is b (destructive)

Explanation:

There are 2 types of destructive forces that wear away mountains and other features:

  • Slow forces

The 2 main destructive forces that wear down mountains and land features of the earth slowly and steadily are weathering and erosion. Weathering is the breaking down of rocks due to forces such as wind and water. The pieces of rock are then moved elsewhere through the process of erosion. The classic examples of weathering and erosion are The Grand Canyon and Monument Valley in Arizona.  

  • Quick forces

Quick destructive forces are earthquake and tsunami that can eliminate the features of our Earth in minutes or even in seconds. Tsunami can smooth the Earth surface and erase hills and mountains. A tsunami can take hundreds of km of Earth and drag it back to the ocean floor. Earthquake can cause the Earth to crack, causing sinkholes. Quick destructive force can also be a landslide. Mountain sides can move to the base of a mountain in seconds.

What are some of the responsibilities of state governments in the United States? What do these states control within their bound
Tamiku [17]
States create their own laws, states have their own constitution, land and county governments. The state law stands unless a federal law overwrites it. States have their own transportation departments (make the roads, plan the roads, repair the roads).

A topography map would best provide information about which areas? Check all that apply.
MatroZZZ [7]

A topography map provides visual information about elevations, either by color or by circles, so the answers would be:

- areas with mountains

- regions with a high elevation.

The change of elevation (going high or low) would be represented by circles.  The closest the circles are to each other, the steeper is the variation.

A topographic map is usually a large-scale map (showing a small area, like your neighbourhood, not a whole country for example).  If there are state boundaries or any kind of road passing in that frame, yes they will be shown on the map... but it's not the primarily use of a topographic map.
