Final answer:

The difference between the highest and lowest heights, assuming the correct lowest height is -40 m, is 553 m, which corresponds to option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks for the difference between the highest and lowest heights from a given list. To find this, we first identify the highest height, which is 513 m, and the lowest height, which is -125 m. The difference is found by subtracting the lowest height from the highest height: 513 m - (-125 m) = 513 m + 125 m = 638 m. However, this is not one of the options provided, which suggests there may be a typo in the question, or the options given. Assuming that the correct lowest height is -40 m instead of -125 m, the calculation would be 513 m - (-40 m) = 513 m + 40 m = 553 m.
