Question

Which type of map changes every time a new country is formed?

A) physical map

B) political map

C) contour map

Answer 1

A map is a diagrammatic representation of the various areas of land like a forest, rivers, mountains

Step-by-step explanation:

There are six types of maps

1. Political Map: A political map shows the national and state boundaries of a place. The location of various cities of a state is also shown in politics. The political map does not show any topographic or a physical feature of a land.
2. Physical Map: The physical map shows the physical features of a place. The physical feature of a place is shown using various colors like blue for rivers, brown for mountains.
3. Topographic Map: This type of map resembles the physical map as it also shows the physical features of a place. The only difference between a physical map and topographic map is that the difference in elevation and changes in the landscape are shown with the help of contour lines in a topographic map.
4. Climatic Map: This type of map is used to obtain the climatic information of a particular area.
5. Resource Map: This type of map is used to obtain resources found in a particular area or geographic location.
6. Road Map: This is the most commonly used map. It shows information about various roads and highways in particular geographic location

Contour Maps are a subset of a topographic map.

The answer to the above question is (B)Political Map because as a new country is formed the political set up of the country changes, the physical features of a place remains the same.
