What is a globe?

A globe is a spherical model of Earth. It serves purposes that are similar to some maps. A model globe of Earth is known as a terrestrial globe. A model globe of the celestial sphere is called a celestial globe.

Features of globe

Globes come in various sizes and types such as big ones, small pocket globes, and globe-like balloons.

The globe is not fixed and can be rotated in the same fashion as a topspin or a potter’s wheel is rotated.

On the globe, countries, continents and oceans are shown in their correct size.

A needle is fixed through the globe in a tilted manner, which is called its axis.

Two points on the globe through which the needle passes are two poles – the North Pole and the South Pole.

The globe can be moved around this needle from west to east just as the earth moves. But, there is a major difference......

please mark as brainliest.....

Explanation:

A globe is a spherical model of Earth, of some other celestial body, or of the celestial sphere. Globes serve purposes similar to some maps, but unlike maps, do not distort the surface that they portray except to scale it down.
