Which displays Earth's curved surface on a flat model?

globe

grid

meridian

projection

Answer: D projection

Projection displays Earth's curved surface on a flat model.

Explanation:

A map projection is a way of leveling the surface of a world in a plane to create a map. This requires a systematic change of latitudes and latitudes of places in a plane from the surface of the world.

A model does not distort the relationships of the globe surface the way maps do, but maps can be more useful in many situations: they are more compact and easier to store; They easily accommodate a vast range of scales; They are easily seen on computer displays; They can be measured to find the properties of the area being mapped; They can show large parts of the Earth's surface at once; And they are cheap to produce and transport.
