Answer 2

The colours of light green in maps are used to identify the elevations in physical maps, forests and reservations in general maps.

Explanation:

• Map designers use colour on maps to represent certain features. Colour use is always consistent on a single map and often consistent across different types of maps made by different designers and publishers.
• Physical maps usually show the most important political boundaries, such as state and country boundaries. Major cities and major roads are often shown.
• Physical maps use colour most dramatically to show changes in elevation. It is important to remember that maps that use shades of greens do not represent ground cover but identify the elevations.

• However, the colour green in general maps represent forests, wild spaces and agricultural lands in topographic maps.
