Answer:

1. A map is two dimensional, while a globe is three dimensional

2. A globe is a scaled down representation of the entire Planet Earth. A map can represent an area of any size.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A map is usually a sheet of rectangular paper that is a flattened image of an area as seen from the top. A globe on the other hand is a sphere which is a 3D shape.

2. Earth is in the shape of a sphere, so Globes are a smaller representation of the planet. A map can be for a city, state, country, or the world.
