Answer:

I. The landforms such as valleys, volcanoes, hill, plateau, etc., in a geographical area or region.

II. The shape of the land.

Explanation:

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

A topographic map can be defined as an accurate and detailed graphical (two-dimensional) description, representation or records of both natural and man-made (artificial) features on the surface of the Earth.

A topographic map is a two-dimensional model that uses contour lines to represent points of equal elevation above sea level such as mountains, hills, plains, valley etc.

The two-dimensional model of a topographic map graphically represents the height of a mount and the steepness of a slope through the use of contour lines.

Contours can be defined imaginary lines used for connecting locations that are having similar elevations on the Earth's surface.

Hence,a topography show two (2) main things and these includes;

I. The landforms such as valleys, volcanoes, hill, plateau, etc., in a geographical area or region.

II. The shape of the land.

red blood cells are placed in water that has been distilled so there are no solutes dissolved in the water. Are the red blood ce
makvit [3.9K]
Red blood cells will swell and burst. The reason behind this is that red blood cells are okay when they are in the plasma (the watery part of the blood) because the solutes in plasma are so  well balanced that plasma is rendered isotonic. An isotonic solution is a type of solution that has the same salt concentration as its surrounding environment and thus the substances around it e.g. cells neither gain nor lose water. In the blood plasma, the red blood cells neither lose nor gain water  and so they remain intact.<span>However distilled water is hypotonic (has less or no solutes) and therefore osmosis will take place when red blood cell which have a higher solute concentration are placed in it. Water molecules will leave the distilled water and pass into the red blood cells through the semi-permeable membrane of the cells in an attempt to equalize the difference in osmotic pressure on either side of the membrane. In so doing, water will accumulate in the cell which will then swell to capacity and ultimately burst.</span>

We consume significant amounts of what vitamin in an inactive form?
Art [367]
Vitamin A; it is a soluble vitamin in fatty bodies, which can not be released in the urine as other vitamins normally do, it is said that we consume large quantities in an inactive form since this is necessary for many human body processes such as vision, formation and maintenance of skin cells, the immune system, growth and even lactation and embryonic development, therefore it is not necessary to be active to consume large amounts of this vitamin.
