Well if you mean what does the controlled part of a scientific investigation, it is the part of the investigation that will be your control or your base, untouched, original, data and such.
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.

Boston, the biggest burg in New England, is located on a mountainous peninsula in Massachusetts Bay. The region had been inhabited since at least 2400 B.C. by the Massachusetts race of Native Americans, who assemble the peninsula Shawmut. Fearing more tension between Native Americans and settlers, England's King George III upshot the Proclamation of 1763, prohibiting residence westward of the Allegheny Mountains.
