Sedimentary rocks form by breaking down other kinds of rocks into small particles and washing or blowing them away; metamorphic rocks form from other rocks and igneous rocks form by melting other rocks. Thus rocks are always changing form and are redistributted as part of a giant cycle of renewal.

Answer:

Sedimentary rocks are formed on or near the Earth’s surface, in contrast to metamorphic and igneous rocks, which are formed deep within the Earth. The most important geological processes that lead to the creation of sedimentary rocks are erosion, weathering, dissolution, precipitation, and lithification.

Erosion and weathering include the effects of wind and rain, which slowly break down large rocks into smaller ones. Erosion and weathering transform boulders and even mountains into sediments, such as sand or mud. Dissolution is a form of weathering—chemical weathering. With this process, water that is slightly acidic slowly wears away stone. These three processes create the raw materials for new, sedimentary rocks.

Contour lines that are close together indicate a slope than lines that have more separation between them.
sasho [114]

The statement is correct.

The contour lines are a very good indicator of the relief. The closer they are to one another, the steeper the relief, and vice verse, the more distant they are from one another, the flatter the relief is.

In general, contour lines that are very close to each other can be noticed on the mountains, as most of the mountains have steep parts, or rather steeper slopes.

The more distant contour lines, on the other hand, can be found on places like the valleys or the plateaus, places that in general are much flatter.
