Answer:

B. Mercator projection

Explanation:

The Mercator projection is a map projection that was developed by Gerardus Mercator in 1569. This is one of the best known map projections because of the advantages it has for navigation. A Mercator projection shows correct shapes and directions. It also preserves the angles and the shapes of small objects. However, the main disadvantage of such a map is the fact that it inflates the size of objects away from the equator, which can give an inaccurate representation of distances and size.

Reflexión sobre los cambios que deben experimentar los partidos políticos para lograr la credibilidad ante los ciudadanos
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Los partidos políticos, con el fin de lograr o recuperar la credibilidad ante los ciudadanos, deben llevar a cabo tres importantes medidas:

  • Hacer promesas creíbles: a pesar de que muchos piensan lo contrario, los ciudadanos suelen reconocer cuando están siendo engañados y les están prometiendo cosas imposibles de llevar a cabo, por esta razón, es importante, que los partidos políticos solo prometan cosas que realmente pueden llevar a la práctica.
  • Cumplir en la medida de lo posible esas promesas: una vez el partido político accede al poder, este debe hacer todo lo posible por cumplir las promesas de campaña. Sino lo hacen, los votantes se sentirán defraudados y la credibilidad del partido disminuirá.
  • Estar conformado por personas competentes que no sean corruptas: si los miembros del partido no están capacitados, no harán su trabajo bien, y el partido perderá credibilidad. Y sobra decir que un escándalo de corrupción es quizás lo que más reduce la credibilidad de un partido frente a sus votantes.
