• A. A map is more accurate in representing the Earth than a globe.
• B. A globe can be easily cut to form a map.
• C. A map gives away more information than a globe.
• D. We get more information about villages from a globe.

Answer 1

The correct option is C A map gives away more information than a globe.

Although a map provides more information than a globe, a globe is more accurate to show Earth in its actual form. A globe is round in shape and is a replica of the Earth. And a map is a flat representation of the Earth and has all the intricate details like boundaries, rail routes, climatic conditions, latitudes, longitudes and a lot more. There's only one type of globe but there are different types of maps according to different needs.
