Question
This measurement is equivalent to elevation only for mountains which are the highest point on their respective landmasses. For 10 points each:
[10m] Name this measurement of a peak's height above its key col, or the lowest point along the ridge connecting that peak to its parent peak.
ANSWER: topographic prominence [accept relative height; accept wet prominence; reject dry prominence]
[10h] It is unclear what the world's fifth most prominent mountain is, as Pico Simón Bolívar and Pico Cristobal Colon, both in this isolated coastal range, have almost identical elevations as the tallest mountains in Colombia.
ANSWER: Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta [prompt on Sierra Nevada]
[10e] After Mount Everest, this tallest mountain in Hawaii ranks second in dry prominence, which assumes that all water bodies have been drained. This volcano is often inaccurately labeled the tallest mountain from base to height.
ANSWER: Mauna Kea
