What type of map projection portrays accurate sizes but distorts the shapes of land masses?
A map projection is a flat representation of the Earth's global surface. There are for different types of projections-- those that focus on distance, those that focus on direction, those that focus on area, and those that focus on shape. Conformal map projections are the type that show the correct size of continents but distort area size.
How much area is shown in an entire Landsat image?
The swath width is about 185 km.
What happens when quake hits An area of bedrock?
You die
What do you call an earthquake that occurs after a larger earthquake in the same area?
This is known as an aftershock.
What are the different kinds of map projection?
There are many different kinds of map projections. The projections consist of equirectangular, Mercator, Gauss-Kruger, Gall stereographic, Miller, Lambert cylindrical equal area, Behrman, Hobo Dyer, Gail Peters, Sinusoidal, Mollweide, Eckert II, Eckert IV, Eckert VI, Goode homlosine, Kavrayskiy VII, Robinson, Natural Earth, Tobler hyperelliptical, and Wagner VI just to name a few.
What happens to surface area to volume ratios for larger and larger cubes?
They grow
What is the difference between winkel tripel projection and mercator?
What is the difference between Mercator projections, Equal Area Projections and Winkel Tripel Projections.
What happens to the area of a circle when its doubled?
When the diameter is doubled, perhaps? Then the area is 4 x larger.
What happens as light travels farther from its source?
The photons spread over a larger area

Why are the walls of the small intestine lined with small projections?
It increases the surface area of the inside of the intestine, this allows for more area where nutrients can be absorbed.
What is the function of the folds and projections of the mucosa withing the alimentary canal?
Folds and projections of alimentery canal increase surface area for digestion and absorption of food.
What do cartographers do with coordinate planes?
They project the surface of a sphere (the Earth) using a projection. Often the latitudes and longitudes are mapped onto the coordinate plane for small area but such projections distort shapes when mapping larger areas.
Projections of the plasma membrane of the cell that increase the cell's surface area?
microvilli
As a cell becomes larger what happens to its surface area and volume?
The Volume increases faster than the Surface Area
In the two circles shown below the radius of the larger circle is three times the radius of the smaller circle If the area of the larger circle is 60.84 timmespi what is the area of the smaller circle?
if the radius is a third then the area is a ninth 60.84 x 1/32 = 6.76 timmespi (if that's 'times pi' then) 6.76/pi = 2.15
What happens to the surface area to volume ratio when folds are made in a cell's outer membrane?
The surface area to volume ratio will increase
