Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

Mercator projection is a type of cylindrical projection that is used to represent the earth in a rectangular map. They are generally used by sailors for marine navigation purposes. It has an advantage that it gives the exact true direction between any places on earth. But near the poles, the size of the landmass as well as the distance between the places gets distorted. So it is not efficient to map the near-polar region.

hence, the correct answer is option (A).

Answer: These maps show true direction and land shapes fairly accurately, but not size or distance. Areas that are located far from the Equator are quite distorted.

These structures work to filter our CSF into the dural sinuses such as the superior sagittal sinus

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The answer is B) arachnoid granulations

Explanation:

Arachnoid Mater and CSF Circulation:

The arachnoid is the middle layer of the meninges which are the membranes covering the brain.
The arachnoid is characterized by the spider web like projections that extend between it and the pia mater (outer membrane of the meninges).
These projections are located in the subarachnoid space (space below the arachnoid). These projections contain the circulating cerebrospinal fluid or CSF.
The arachnoid extends into the dural sinuses through the arachnoid granulations in which the CSF is filtered and added to the blood for drainage from the brain.
