No because their not all at sea level.
it would bend towards the point of origin or where it starts.
A contour line is an imaginary line connecting point of equal elevation. Going from one line to an adjacent line is a change in slope.
The lines on a topographic map are called contour lines. These lines represent points of equal elevation above or below a reference point, such as sea level. Contour lines help us visualize the shape and features of the land surface on a two-dimensional map.
No. Contour lines connect points of the same elevation
The rule of "V" on a topographic map refers to the shape created by contour lines when they converge or come together. When contour lines form a "V" shape, it indicates a valley or a depression in the terrain. The point of the "V" always points upstream or towards higher elevation.
No. Contour lines connect points of the same elevation

The highest point in an area would appear as a peak or summit with concentric contour lines closely spaced together, indicating steep terrain. The lowest point would be represented by depressions or valleys with contour lines spaced farther apart, showing gentle slopes leading to the lowest elevation.
OMG, that was one of my science questions I had. Dang. I failed at it, so Idk the answer. bahahah
A contour line (also known as isopleth) on a topographic map connects points of equal elevation or depth. The steepest way up or down is in the direction perpendicular to the contour line at any given point. This gradient on a topographic map is at its greatest when the lines are close together, thus the slope is steepest. Note that a contour map does not have to be topographic. Any value mapped in two or three dimensions such as temperature, barometric pressure, or wind speed can have contour lines connecting adjacent points of equal value. Again, moving away from a contour line in a perpendicular direction will yield the greatest change in the value of the quality being recorded.
A depression is shown by contour lines with small marks pointing toward the lowest point of the depression.
No. Contour lines connect points of the same elevation
