Answer:
to find flat areas of land for building
Explanation:
Topography maps give an important indication road maps don't: the elevation of the terrain.
If you want to construct a mall, that's a large building, you need to find large patch of flat land, or at least one that is easy to flatten out.
You will need flat land not only for your mall, but also for the parking lot.
So, a topography map will give you the levels indications you need... and your engineers and architects will also work closely with topography maps on this project.
C. one plate is pushed beneath another
Answer: The ice caps are already in water.
Explanation:
The ice packs in North Pole and the ice sheet in Antarctica are already in water. When they melt therefore, they are simply being converted from one state to another but the quantity is the same.
In other words, the volume that the ice occupied in the water becomes the volume of liquid added to the water so there is no net change in volume added leading to sea levels staying the same.
The probable cause that would make this to happen is what is known as thrust faulting.
<h3>What is thrust faulting?</h3>
This is a situation that occurs in the earth's crust which causes it to break. When the crust breaks, the result is that it would cause older rocks to be on the new younger ones.
superposition is the ascending order by which rocks are arranged from the youngest to the oldest.
