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.
