Why should one not conclude only by seeing colours on a rainfall distribution map?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because the legend gives the correct rainfall meaning of colours

The direct answer is A: the legend tells us what each colour represents in rainfall terms. A map colour has no fixed meaning by itself. One map may use dark blue for heavy rainfall, while another may use a different colour scheme or class range. The legend, also called the key, explains the symbols, colours, lines, and numerical intervals used on that particular map. Correct reading must therefore proceed in order: first locate the title and subject; then read the legend; next match the colour of an area with the legend’s rainfall range; finally compare regions carefully. Option A is correct because the legend provides the exact meaning of the colours. Option B is wrong because colours are not always wrong; they are useful when interpreted through the key. Option C is wrong because rainfall distribution maps are specifically designed to show rainfall patterns or amounts. Option D is wrong because colours do not always show temperature; the subject and legend decide what they represent. A student should never assume that darker automatically means more rain unless the legend confirms it. Memory cue: no legend, no reliable map conclusion.
