What is the most accurate way to show Earth's continents and bodies of water?

The most accurate way to show Earth's continents and bodies of water is by using a map projection that minimizes distortion, such as the Winkel Tripel projection or the Robinson projection. These projections aim to represent the true sizes and shapes of land masses and bodies of water as accurately as possible.


What evidence is there to show that the continents today were once from an super continent?

Evidence supporting the theory of the supercontinent Pangaea includes the jigsaw-like fit of continents, similarities in rock formations and mountain ranges across continents that align when continents are brought together, distribution of fossils of identical species across distant continents, and similarities in ancient climates and geological records found on separate continents. These pieces of evidence work together to suggest that the current continents were once part of a single landmass.


Which way are the continents moving?

All the continents are moving in different directs but if you go to google images and type 'tectonic plate movement' at least one of those pictures will show what directions different continents are moving in


What types of information show that continental drift has occurred?

Maybe the depth of oceans


How do scientists know about continents once existing of landmasses?

There are two main evidences for this: 1. The continents fit together like a puzzle 2. There are both extant and extinct animal and plant species present on several continents that are not connected

What is the most accurate way to show the Earth's Continents and Ocean?

The most accurate way to show the Earth's continents and oceans is by using a map projection that preserves the relative size and shape of landmasses, such as the Winkel Tripel projection. This projection minimizes distortion of continents and oceans compared to other types of projections. Additionally, utilizing a globe is the most accurate representation of Earth's true shape and geography.

Does the Mercator projection show the size or the location of the continents more accurately on a map?

It's the location. 'A projection is a system for mapping the round Earth on a flat surface. The Mercator projection map shows the accurate locations of the continents and oceans. The land and water areas, however, are greatly distorted toward the North and South Poles.'


Does a globe or map show the size of continents landmasses and bodies of water accurately?

A globe provides a more accurate representation of the size of continents, landmasses, and bodies of water compared to a flat map. Maps distort the size of landmasses as they try to represent a spherical Earth on a flat surface, causing inaccuracies, especially near the poles.

How do you show earth's bodies of water and the continents?

One way to show Earth's bodies of water and continents is by using a map. Maps typically use different colors to differentiate between water bodies (blue) and landmasses (various colors for continents). Another way is to use a globe, which provides a 3D representation of the Earth's surface with its water bodies and continents.
