Geography

zhuklara [117]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: a location can only have one elevation.

Explanation:Contour lines can never cross on a topographic map. This is because they represent the same elevation of the land surface. A particular point of a land cannot be at two or more than one elevation and this means that only one contour line can pass through that particular point.

All points present along a contour line represent just a single elevation. The most prominent features on a topographic map are the contour lines. The contour lines are the lines that connect points of the same elevation.

And each contour line represents a different elevation so you can't have two (2) different elevations on the same point.

There are 3 kinds of contour lines you can find on a map:

Luxembourgish, a language unique to Luxembourg, is most closely related to which other language?
12345 [234]
<span>German and French are the most spoken
and aprox... 390,000 people worldwide speak Luxembourgish.

Luxembourgish is also spoken in small parts of the surrounding countries of Belgium (in the Province of Luxembourg near Arlon), France (in small parts of the Lorraine) and Germany (around Bitburg and Trier). In Germany and Lorraine it is simply considered the local German dialect. Since the Second World War, however, the language has not been taught in these countries, with the result that use of Luxembourgish is largely restricted to the older generations.

Furthermore, the language is spoken by a few descendants of Luxembourg immigrants in the United States, and a closely related variety is spoken by ethnic Germans long settled in Transylvania, Romania (Siebenbürgen). </span>
