The best answer is C.

Mercator projection is a type of map projection invented and introduced by Gerardus Mercator in the year 1569. The meridians are equally spaced, parallel vertical lines and the parallels of latitude are parallel horizontal lines spaced farther apart as their distance from the equator increases.

This projection is widely used for navigation charts because any straight line on a Mercator- projection map is a line of constant true bearing that enables a navigator to plot a straight-line course.

It is often described as a cylindrical projection  but it must be derived mathematically.

Areas where tectonic plates meet up but do not fit neatly into a category, and are ill-defined, are called _______ .

why does economic development continue even when the resources on which it was based are no longer available​
yulyashka [42]

Economic development is able to continue in the absence of the resources that first drove it because:

  • Countries can trade to get the resources
  • Economic development allows for diversification

When a nation is unable to access the resources that made it quite successful, it can resort to buying that resource and then improving on it.

For instance, the U.K. used to produce sufficient coal but now import more than they produce.

Another way a nation can continue developing is diversification. The income gained from the resource that has now finished, will enable a nation to go into other economic activities which will continue their development.

For example, China used to export only agricultural goods but diversified into industrial.

In conclusion, a country can keep developing if their primary resource is finished thanks to trade and diversification.
