Answer:
The statement is true.
Explanation:
Hot springs and geysers are natural features where we have warm to hot water coming out or propelling into the air. They can be found in a lot of places around the world, but what can be noticed is that the highest concentration of them is actually near the plate boundaries, slightly less in former volcanic areas, and rarely in areas that have not been tectonically active for a prolonged period of time.
The reason for such distribution is that the magma deep into the crust and the hot rocks are what cause the formation of hot springs and geysers. The groundwater gets heated by the magma that has managed to rich to a certain point in the crust, or has heated up the rocks above it. Being exposed to heat, the water gets hot as well, but also that creates a lot of pressure, and in the case of the geysers it results in shooting out hot water high into the air.
The correct answer is - it is more precise.
The large scale maps that show smaller portions of the Earth's surface have the advantage over the small scale maps because they are more accurate. The difference grows with the scale number difference, the smaller it is, the more accurate it is, the bigger it is the less accurate it is. For example, if a neighborhood is shown on a map, than it will be very precise and will capture the exact picture of the area, but if the whole planet is represented, than the accuracy will be much lesser, and that will be especially evident with the places that a further away from the equator.
