Answer:

A characteristic of the Woodland and Mississippian cultures was the earthen mounds.

Explanation:

The Woodland and Mississippian cultures were the most advanced cultures in what is now the USA. They had well-developed civilizations in comparison to the people groups in their surroundings. Their trademark though was the construction of earthen mounds that are found all over the territories in which the two cultures existed.

The earthen mounds, as the name suggests, are mounds made out of the ground. They vary in size, from just a few meters to hundreds of meters. Their shapes too vary, with some being in a semi-circular shape, some like bulges, while some even like snakes. The purpose of these mounds is still a theme of hot debate, but it is most commonly thought that they had religious purposes.

A topography map would best provide information about which areas? Check all that apply.
MatroZZZ [7]

A topography map provides visual information about elevations, either by color or by circles, so the answers would be:

- areas with mountains

- regions with a high elevation.

The change of elevation (going high or low) would be represented by circles.  The closest the circles are to each other, the steeper is the variation.

A topographic map is usually a large-scale map (showing a small area, like your neighbourhood, not a whole country for example).  If there are state boundaries or any kind of road passing in that frame, yes they will be shown on the map... but it's not the primarily use of a topographic map.
