Why Sea level appears higher than land?

Sea level appears higher than land because water bodies, such as oceans and seas, cover a large portion of the Earth's surface, leading to the sea level being the average height of the ocean's surface. In contrast, landmasses vary in elevation, with some areas being higher and some lower than the sea level. This difference in elevation between land and sea level creates the perception that the sea is higher than land.

How do index contours let you know if the land you are viewing are increasing or decreasing?

Each index contour has an elevation associated with it. When you look at 2 contours, one will have a higher corresponding elevation. As you go from the lower elevation to the higher elevation, you know that the land is increasing in the direction toward the higher elevation. From the higher to the lower elevation, the land is decreasing (sloping downward, decreasing in elevation).

Why is there space between mountains?

A mountain is something that is higher than the rest of the land. You can't be "higher than the rest of the land" unless there is lower land to be higher than. If there were no space between mountains, then all land would be at the altitude of the top of the mountains, and it would all be flat, and there would be no mountains.
