Answer:

ratio of land to water in a certain area.

Step-by-step explanation:

The/A dot density map, is a map type that uses a dot symbol to show the presence of a feature or a phenomenon. Dot maps rely on a visual scatter to show spatial pattern. Each dot in a dot density map represents an aggregate of information. For example, a map of a state with dots representing locations of fast food restaurants would not be considered a dot density map. Dots in dot density maps do not represent the locations of things; they represent a summary of data for a given area. Hope it helps - Have a great day!

Answer:

ratio of land to water in a certain area.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dot density map is also known as a dot distribution map. In this type of map, the symbol of the dot is used to denote certain features. Every dot is a representation of certain data highlighted in the map. In such maps, the area in which the dots appear in large numbers, the area is said to have a high density of certain features. There are specifically two types of dot-density maps. The first is one-to-one and the second is one-to-many. In a One-to-one dot map, a single dot symbolizes a certain feature. In a One-to-many dot map, a single dot symbolizes more than one feature.
