Amercator projection map shows
a) accurate directions, but has distorted sizes and distances
b) accurate sizes, but has distorted distances
c) accurate distances and shapes, but has distortions around edges

These maps show true direction and land shapes fairly accurately, but not size or distance. Areas that are located far from the Equator are quite distorted.

Hope this Helps

Option (A)

Explanation:

Mercator projection is a type of cylindrical projection that is used to represent the earth in a rectangular map. They are generally used by sailors for marine navigation purposes. It has an advantage that it gives the exact true direction between any places on earth. But near the poles, the size of the landmass as well as the distance between the places gets distorted. So it is not efficient to map the near-polar region.

hence, the correct answer is option (A).

the transfer of energy between two molecules spaced just nanometers apart plays a key role in many technologies, including photovoltaics, quantum information systems, lighting, and sensors, as well as in biophysics to measure nanometer distances and in photosynthesis. but an open question in this area is what effect, if any, the surrounding photonic environment has on this nanoscale energy transfer. by designing and performing a carefully controlled experiment to answer this question, scientists have settled the debate and found clues to improving the efficiency of many of the technologies that rely on this process.
