In choropleth maps, colours/tints do not change according to the values of the variables.
✓

Answer

Wrong.
In choropleth maps, colours/tints change according to the values of variables.
  • In choropleth maps, the smallest and the largest values are taken into consideration and after that 5-7 classes are made.
  • Each class is assigned a unique tint of the same colour or black and white pattern.
  • In other words, each class is used to show the distribution of a particular variable in sub- administrative unit.
