Answer to Question 1

Answer: wetlands, organic soils, water bodies, or crop health

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A conic projection is a transfer from a globe tangent to Earth; the cone is then unrolled to make a map. A planar projection is a transfer from a globe to a plane. A conic projection is proper for a map that emphasizes middle latitude areas with great east-west extents (e.g. North America), while a planar projection can be used to view one side of Earth at once, centered on an area of interest (e.g., the North Pole).
