Flattening a three-dimensional globe onto a flat surface isn't possible without some distortion. Mercator maps distort the shape and relative size of continents, particularly near the poles. Projections also distort distance, direction, scale and area.
Question 1: Which city is most likely located in a desert? *
Captionless Image
Batesville
Ft. Ostertag
Stinsonopolis
Rosstown
Question 1 Explanation: What is the correct answer and why? *
Answer:
Stinsonpolis
Explanation:
Since there is mountains there and on the other side of the picture is wind then it means the mountains are blocking so the wind can't pass through, so I predict its a desert that doesn't get much wind. (I don't really care if I get right or wrong I'm just tryna help people.)
2. How are the two types of data generally show in maps (lines, colors, etc)? Hint: they are not exactly the same!
Answer:
Quantitative
Qualitative
Explanation:
Quantitative data is the one which displays only numerical data. Quantitative data is one which is non numerical data. These data are shown on the maps to help understand the reader. Map are designed in a way to help the travelers to identify the route and calculate the distance before the travel. They can calculate the distance using quantitative data mentioned on the map. There can be alternate routes available and the traveler may seek the shortest distance route.

Which object Can an S way travel
Answer:
S-waves can travel only through solids
Explanation:
S-waves can travel only through solids, because only solids have rigidity. S-waves cannot travel through liquids or gases. Because the earth's mantle becomes more rigid as its depth below the asthenosphere increases, S-waves travel faster as they go deeper in the mantle.
Ok serious question this time,
The movement of tectonic plates is inferred by many scientists to be driven by
A) solidification in the lithosphere
B) density differences in the troposphere
C) convection currents in the asthenosphere
D) tidal motions in the hydrosphere
Answer:
c
Explanation:
layers of the earths crust
The movement of tectonic plates is inferred by many scientists to be driven by convection currents in the asthenosphere. Option (c) is correct.
What do you mean by Asthenosphere?The asthenosphere is a solid portion of the upper mantle that is so heated that it can flow and behave like plastic. The asthenosphere supports the lithosphere. The asthenosphere can flow like toothpaste despite being solid. The topmost concentric layers of our globe are the asthenosphere and lithosphere.
Convection currents are created by the intense heat and pressure that exists within the earth. The tectonic plates that make up the earth's crust move as a result of these currents.
Therefore, Option (c) is correct. The movement of tectonic plates is inferred by many scientists to be driven by convection currents in the asthenosphere.

Areas near sea level enjoys moderate temperature whereas, areas situated far have higher temperature. Do you agree/disagree with the above mentioned statement? Justify your answer with two logical reasons..
Answer:
Yes , I agree
Explanation:
Areas near sea level enjoys moderate temperature whereas, areas situated far have higher temperature.
This is because;
1. Water have high heat capacity than the soil and this make it to take long time to heat up and cool which make areas near it have moderate temperature and transfer of cook air.
2. Air that is around areas near water will be much cooler from transfer of energy between water and air, while air that circulate above areas far from water will heat up much more quickly. Therefore, areas near water have more moderate temperature because water is nearby to regulate the temperature and keep it more constant.
why are days longer in summer than in winter?
Answer:
As the Earth circles the Sun during the year, half of the Earth get pretty much daylight than the other portion of the Earth. In the late spring months, the northern portion of the Earth, where we live, inclines towards the Sun. This implies we get more daylight, making the days longer.
