Large falls; large rapids correspond to which symbol category in the map legend?

• A. Rivers, Lakes and Canals Symbols
• B. Roads and Related Features Symbols
• C. Trail Symbols
• D. Boundary Symbols

Answer: (A)

Large falls and rapids are features that occur along a watercourse, so they’re part of hydrography—the category that covers rivers, lakes, and canals. The map legend groups water-related features together, including the symbols used for rivers and their associated features like rapids and falls, under Rivers, Lakes and Canals Symbols. That’s why this category is the best fit. The other categories refer to man-made or political features—roads, trails, and boundaries—and don’t describe water features along rivers.
