What kind of map is a rectangular representation of earth but she was accurate directions but distorts the sizes and distances

Biology
1 answer:
Anna [14]3 years ago
8 0

The correct answer is - Mercator projection map.

The Mercator projection map is a cylindrical type of map that represents the Earth in rectangular manner. While the map may seem as a nice representation of the Earth, and it has accurate directions, it also has some flaws. The biggest flaw of this map is the distortion of the sizes. The distortion is non existent on the Equator, but as it moves north and south of it towards the poles, the distortion is constantly increasing. This projection is not made to be able to cope with the increase of the scale, especially when it it is infinite at the poles.

Because of this, on this map, Greenland looks very similar in size with Africa, even though in reality it is around 15 times smaller.

stepladder [879]

Answer: Cell number one is an hypotonic solution, cell number two is an isotonic solution, and cell three is an hypertonic solution.

Explanation:

Cell number one which is a 98% water content is added the 100% water solution, water moves from low to high concentration. Therefore, the water moves from the solution into the cell, which is hypotonic.

Cell number two which is a 98% water content added with a 98% water solution. These two solutions are equal to one another, so the water does not move. This is isotonic.

Cell number three which is a 98% water content added with a 80% water solution. Water moves from high to low concentrations, so water moves from the cell to the solution. The water leaves the cell, which is an hypertonic.
