Which image correctly identifies where there is water on Earth?
These four images are from the same portion of the world map. A map is a great place to look for landforms, bodies of water, and landmasses. When using a map, all bodies of water will be blue, and the land may be tan, green, or in this case, multiple colors to distinguish between the countries. You may also notice that the water is not labeled. Maybe times, there will be one label for an ocean or sea, but because it is so large, there may be portions that look unlabeled.
