The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Topographic maps feature contour lines to portray the shape and elevation of the land. Topo maps render the three-dimensional ups and downs of the terrain on a two-dimensional surface. It also includes contours. Orthophoto maps<span> show land features using color-enhanced photographic images which have been processed to show detail in true position. They may or may not include contours."</span>

Geostrophic wind A) is slower than surface winds B) depends on friction C) flows from high pressure to low pressure D) flows par
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Geostrophic wind D) flows parallel to contour lines of upper-air pressure .

Explanation:

Geostrophic wind -

Air parcel generally moves from higher pressure to lower pressure due to pressure gradient force and left or right deflection due to coriolis force. When this deflection takes place a time comes when pressure gradient force and coriolis force becomes equal and the air parcel moves parallel to isobar then the winds are called geostrophic winds .
