timofeeve [1]

Answer:

D. Distortion.

In Geography, topography can be defined as the shape and structure of the Earth surface. Thus, a flat map is used to graphically describe this features.

Contours can be defined imaginary lines used for connecting locations that are having similar elevations on the Earth's surface. These contour lines are typically used for modeling the three-dimensional shape of the Earth surface in a map.
