The aspect of a slope means

  • A.the rock type from which it is formed
  • B.the compass direction it faces
  • C.the steepness of its gradient
  • D.the height of its highest point

Answer: B

Correct answer: the compass direction it faces

Aspect governs how much sun a slope receives and how exposed it is to prevailing wind and rain, so it affects temperature, snow lie, vegetation and agriculture. In hill country it is often more important than altitude in deciding what a slope is used for.
