Which of the following is false about the characteristics of contour lines? Select the correct response: Contours are perpendicular to the direction of maximum slope. The direction of rainfall run-off in a map area can be determined from this characteristic. Contour lines are irregularly spaced on uniformly sloping ground. Contour lines tend to parallel streams. Rivers usually have a flatter gradient than do intermittent streams. Each contour line must close upon itself either within or outside the borders of the map. A series of closed contour lines represents either a hill or depression. The elevations of the index contour lines will indicate which series represents a hill and which represents a depression.
