Four of the teeth were long and pointed was the clue that led to the conclusion for the girl to decide upon the fact for** projecting the ridge. **Hence, option D is **appropriate. **
What is the meaning of Ridge?
Mountains' ridges and peaks crawl throughout the surface.** The ridge serves as an excellent higher origin point for the powerful temporal muscle sheets. After riding across a tall ridge, we stopped to take in the landscape. They were located on the ridg**e line above us.
Depending on the arrangement as well as the relationship of the ridges, three different types of friction** ridge patterns**—loops, whorls, and arches—are distinguished:** Prints that curl back **onto themselves to create a loop shape are called loops.
A ridge is represented on a map by two contour lines that, for a while, run side by side and share the same elevation. The ridge will either be flattening to a** high plateau **as the lines divide, or it is still rising with new contour lines.
Hence, option D is correct.
