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.
