What is one of the challenges of developing maps?

1 point
The Earth is too big to show on a map.
There are too many different projections and no one can agree which one we should use.
Maps are too hard to read.
Showing the Earth on a flat surface brings some distortion which makes things look the wrong size or in the wrong place.
