A very steep region
Closely spaced contour lines indicate a very steep slope.
Conversely, widely spaced lines indicate areas that are nearly flat.

Contour lines that are close together on a topographic map indicate an area of steep slope. If they essentially overlap you have a cliff.
The closer the contours, the steeper the slope.
The closer contour lines appear on a map, the steeper is the slope on the ground. Each contour line represents a difference in height, which are usually in feet or metres.

a steeper slopes
yall need to answer it yourself's
Lines that are very close together or touching indicate very steep terrain, perhaps even a cliff.
If the contour lines on a topographic map are close together, that area is a steep slope. If the contours have wide spaces in between then the terrain is relatively flat. Many close contour lines mean the elevation is changing rapidly while sparse contour lines mean elevation changes very little.
They show how steep a landform is. A contour line also is a function of two variables in a curve which has a constant value.
If the topographic lines are closer together it means that it has a steeper slope grade, if they are farther apart, it means that they have a more relaxed slope grade. There is usually a scale on the map that can tell you in exact measurements of the slope.
The steeper the slope, the contour lines go further along the area. You can also determine the flatness of the area with these lines.

The answer depends on what the word "motian" is meant to be.
Lines that are very close together or touching indicate very steep terrain, perhaps even a cliff.
If the contour lines on a topographic map have wide spaces in between and are further apart then the terrain is relatively flat. If the contour lines are close together then the terrain forms a steep slope.

It uses contour lines which are very close together.

Usually the altitude above sea level. Close lines indicate a steep slope while spread out lines show flatter terrain.
On a topographical map, a contour line indicates a change in elevation. When the lines are close together, the elevation is changing rapidly.
A topographic map shows elevations, and large differences in elevation close together indicate steep slopes, which hikers may want to avoid. A path with the smallest differences in elevation will usually be a flatter, more easily-walked path.
