Answer;

A. shape, elevation, and steepness of features

Explanation;

-A topographic map is a detailed and accurate two-dimensional representation of natural and human-made features on the Earth's surface. These maps are used for a number of applications, from camping, hunting, fishing, and hiking to urban planning, resource management, and surveying.

-These map show the three-dimensional shape of the land. Most topographic maps make use of contour lines to depict elevations above sea level. The contour lines reveal the shape of the land in the vertical direction, allowing the 3-dimensional shape of the land to be portrayed on a 2-dimensional map. Contour lines are drawn on a topographic map to show the location of hills, mountains and valleys.

dsp73
The possible answers are:
A. Variation in length of the amino acid backbone
B. Each protein is encoded by a distinct gene
C. Variations in the type of peptide bond
D. Variations in the glycosidic linkage
E. Variation in tertiary structure
<span>F. Variations in which amino acids are used

The correct answers are A,E and F
There are only 20 amino acids that make all of the proteins in our bodies. However, there are options for protein variation are almost unlimited.
Firstly, you can vary the number of different amino acid that you use to make a protein.
Secondly, you can also vary the length of the amino acid chain.
And thirdly, when an amino acid chain is formed different parts of the chain interact with each other, bonding chemically, forming different 3-dimensional structures of the protein.
All of this contributes to the vast variation in proteins.</span>

if a number cube is tossed once which of these is the most likely outcome one, 3, a number greater than 1, or number less than 3
Naddik [55]
A greater more than 3 because in a cube there are 6 numbers  1,2,3,4,5,6
Then it is not equal to have 1 greater than a tree has four numbers and less than three has 2. So more likely, Greater than three.
