The Mercator projection is the map which is a rectangular representation of Earth that shows accurate directions, but distorts sizes and distances. Correct answer: B

Gerardus Mercator  introduced this map in 1569. Because any straight line on this map is a line of constant true bearing it is used for navigation (it enables a navigator to plot a straight-line course).

In addition to comets, water for Earth's early oceans might have come from
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

The correct answer is - D. volcanic eruptions.

In recent studies and research about the water on our planet and how it came to be, the scientists managed to find new evidence that suggest that not only the comets and asteroids contributed to the existence of water on our planet, but also the volcanoes.

The volcanoes are actually releasing into the atmosphere the material from the deeper part of the Earth, the mantle layer. The mantle layer, as it turns out, has water in its rocks, so through the volcanic eruptions, that were much more and much bigger in the distant past, that water got released into the atmosphere. From the atmosphere, that water was falling on the surface, thus contributing to the creation of the first oceans on Earth.

The other ones don't make sense, radiant energy is electromagnetic and gravitational energy. You can't tell how many planets are in its solar system from only this information. The number of galaxies is also impossible to tell. The only other one that could perhaps make sense is the distance to the center of its galaxy. But, this again is disproved as one star can't tell you the position of the center.
