Discussion
Match the attitude with the outcrop pattern on a map.
1. Horizontal bed 2. Vertical bed 3. Gently dipping bed
P. Straight trace ignoring relief Q. Trace following the contours R. Broad trace forming Vs in valleys
Answer: B
Correct answer: 1-Q, 2-P, 3-R
The outcrop pattern is a direct expression of attitude. A horizontal bed follows the contours, since it crops out at one elevation. A vertical bed cuts straight across the map, since relief cannot deflect it. And a gently dipping bed gives a broad trace that swings into pronounced Vs where it crosses valleys, the Vs pointing down dip.
