<u>Answer:</u>

Cartographers can make a projection all the way around the Earth by approximating a <u>Cylindrical projection</u> which is like wrapping a piece of paper around the  globe and casting shadows onto it.

<u>Explanation: </u>

  • In order to wrap the entire globe, the shape of the wrapping cover would mandatorily be needed to be vertically circular.
  • Such a shape would only be possible through a cylindrical projection. The need to use a rolling print would dismiss the logic of the Earth being spherical.
  • A mushroom-like projection would at most cover only one horizontal hemisphere at a time.
  • Hence, that would not be suitable again. The fingerprint projection can only be looked at as an impossible option.

Elza [17]

Answer:

Fissure eruptions

Explanation:

A fissure vent or eruption fissure is a linear volcanic vent from which lava erupts mostly without explosive activity. The vent is usually not very wide but can be very long stretching for miles. While they do not explode like many volcanic cones do, fissure vents can cause large flood basalts. After some time the eruption builds up spatter cones and may concentrate on one or some of them. Spatter cones are steep-sided hills that consist of welded lava fragments that are called spatter and these cones form around vents.

Explanation: An elliptical orbit is said to be formed when object revolves around another in an oval-shaped path known as an ellipse. The planets in our solar system orbit around the sun in elliptical orbits.

The different planets have their different distances from the sun which affects, their climate and determines if life can exist in them.

Many man made satellites orbit the Earth in elliptical orbits, so also does the moon. Generally, most objects and satellites in outer space travel in an elliptical orbit.
