Answer:

Map

Step-by-step explanation:

Map is the representation of three dimensional curved surface of earth on a two dimensional flat surface such as paper, screen etc. For projecting earth on a map, imaginary lines i.e latitude and longitude are drawn on the earth’s surface which is represented as gridlines on the map. The projection of earth’s surface on a map always bear some or the other kind of distortions and hence is never accurate
