If globes are better at showing the Earth accurately, why do we still use maps?
vredina [299]

Answer:

Even though globes are showing Earth more accurately, the maps are still used because they are more practical.

Explanation:

Earth is generally shown with two methods, one being the maps (map projections) and the other being globes. Both are used and will be used, as both have several advantages, but also several disadvantages. Despite globes being closer and more accurate in their representation of Earth, the maps are still used because they are much more practical.

The globes show Earth very close to its true form, though they are made as a ball, not as an ellipsoid. Anyhow, the globes don't have distortions of areas, so the sizes and locations are accurate on them. On the other hand, globes are highly impractical because of their shape, as they are don't often fit in standard backpacks or bags, and can easily be broken or damaged. Also, we can not see the entire Earth at any moment, so it is hard to make comparisons by using them.

The maps, on the other side, do have inaccuracies, mostly by having distortions, be it around the Equator or around the poles. Despite this, they have a relatively good accuracy that in most cases is enough for practical usage. Also, their form and weight make them easy to use, move from place to place, and the entire world can be seen at the same time, thus they are very practical when it comes to making comparisons.

Which observation about the Mid-Atlantic Ridge region provides the best evidence that the seafloor has been spreading for millio
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

D. Seafloor bedrock is younger near the ridge and older farther away.

Explanation:

In a divergence boundary oceanic plates or continental plates move apart. The plates moves apart causing an uprising of molten magma to form a new crust. The divergent movement of plate is very prevalent in the oceanic plates.

The plates in the oceanic crust moves apart due to the up welling of aesthenosphere materials . These aesthenosphere materials(molten magma) are introduce to the ocean floor through the mid oceanic ridge . As this materials are introduced through cracks and fissures, the plates continue to drift apart. The molten magma later solidified to form a new crust closer to the oceanic ridge.  This is why sea floor bedrock closer to the ridge is younger as new rocks are formed here. But as one move farther away from the ridge the rocks become older. This phenomenon provide ample evidence that the seafloor is spreading. The older rocks found father away from the ridge proves the seafloor has been spreading given way for new rocks closer to the ridge.
