Answer:  B. Cartography

Explanation:   Cartography is the study of mapmaking defined, among others, by the International Cartographic Association. This discipline deals with the study, conception and production of maps. The name of the cartography comes from the Greek-Latin word "charta", which means a leaf of paper, and the Greek word "graphein", which means to draw or write. Cartography implies a whole mapping process, from studying a mapped relief to a presentation, that is, drawing on a map.

B. Cartography--a Greek word meaning "study of paper"

The creation of maps and the science behind creating those maps allowed civilizations to travel for trade and conquest. These maps created a paper visual of the world for others to follow and use to navigate land and ocean routes. There is also an art to the creation of maps in deciding how physical features should be represented. Coloring, font, and presentation of the map are all important for use and beauty of the map.
