Surface of the Earth: Most of the Earth's surface (70%) is covered with water, and the remaining 30% is taken up by the seven continental landmasses. However, underneath the water that fills the oceans, and the dirt and plants that cover the continents, the Earth's surface layer is made of rock.
<span>The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Topographic maps feature contour lines to portray the shape and elevation of the land. Topo maps render the three-dimensional ups and downs of the terrain on a two-dimensional surface. It also includes contours. Orthophoto maps</span> show land features using color-enhanced photographic images which have been processed to show detail in true position. They may or may not include contours."
Answer:
A. Weathering, vegetation covering, and water influence the stability of a slope.
Explanation:
- As water tends to flow down by the act of gravity the flow of the water down the slope will make the unconsolidated sediments to flow down the slope and thereby making the slope more prone to weathering and not stabilization it hence the flow tends to move down the rocks, silt and loose particles and thus making it me prone to weathering and erosion.
- <u>Thus the flowage of the matter will create more impacts on the slope angle and width as it will spread more faster and extensively.</u>
