Answer:

Contours that are spread out represent a B. shallow slope.

Explanation:

Points at different heights or elevation are joined by lines which are called as contour line and mainly, it is taken from sea level. By linking the point it helps in determination of places having same height. It also helps in determining type of slope whether it is steep or shallow or constant.

Some of the representation of contour lines are given below:

  • Steepness of slope is measure closeness of the contour lines.
  • Flat slopes have wider contour line whereas in hilly areas it steep.
  • Vertical slopes are formed when lines merge with each other as in waterfall or cliffs.
  • If they are spread out they represent shallow slope.
