Answer:

The correct answer is B. Conic projections.

Explanation:

A conic projection is a type of map projection.  In conical projections, the image is built on the lateral surface of a cone that intersects the globe in two parallels or is tangent to it. The top of the cone lies on the continuation of the Earth's axis. In this way, the Earth is shown in half, starting from a central point that happens to be the North Pole or the South Pole.

The purpose of this type of map is to faithfully show the geographical distribution of the polar areas of the planet, which in other projections are deformed to a greater or lesser extent as a result of the elliptical shape of the polar regions.

How did World War II change life for women and minorities in the United States?
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

while the men were at war, women and people of color took over the "manly" jobs. the government saw that the women were capable of doing hard work and not just being teachers/stay at home moms. the women and minorities started getting a bit of recognition. definitely not as much recognition they deserved, and they still weren't treated well, but they were still able to be nurses, pilots, etc and work in factories/the labor field.
