A map is a representation or a drawing of the earth’s surface or a part of it drawn on a flat surface according to a scale. We find that maps are useful to us for various purposes. Maps can be used to show the physical features of the Earth (mountains, plains,oceans, rivers, etc.), the political divisions of the Earth (countries, states, cities,villages, etc.), and certain specific information (roads, rainfall, forests, industries,etc.) It can be used for representing large areas like continents or countries (large scale maps), and also for representing a small area like a village or a town (small scale maps).

Compression causes Folds called anticlines and synclines. How do these features resemble each other? How do they differ from one
Furkat [3]

The anticlines represents ridges or folds of stratified rocks, with the strata being sloping downwards from the crest.

The synclines represent through or folds of stratified rocks, with the strata being sloping upwards from the axis.

Both of these features are formed in the same manner, by compression. They are also part of a same geological occurrence. Both of them are curved, and seen from side perspective, they are representing one whole, and they look like a wave.

The difference is mainly that the anticlines are always above and they slope downwards, while the synclines are always on the bottom and slope upwards.
