Answer:

If the contour lines are close together it means that the change in elevation is very steep.

Explanation:

A is not correct because if the topography is almost flat, the contour lines would be very far apart.

B is correct because the closer the contour lines are, the steeper the topography is, meaning that the terrain is very steep.

C is not correct because if the elevation is not changing, the contour lines will be missing from that part of the map.

All mass movement occurs on slopes. Without gravity, the material would remain in place and not move. True or false.
matrenka [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The mass movements are representing movements of large masses of soil, also including rocks, water, biomass in them. These movements though need certain natural conditions so that they can happen. For a mass movement to occur, there has to be a slope, and under the influence of the gravitation, once the conditions are right, there will be movement downward until it reaches a flatter spot. If the terrain is flat, then a mass movement can not occur, as the gravitation is pulling the material down, so it will not be able to move. Also, if the gravitation is lacking, the material will not move anywhere, as without gravitation, there will be no atmosphere, and without atmosphere, there will be no agents to cause the mass movement.
