Why are mountains exaggerated on raised relief globes?

AMountains grow each year
BPaper is too thick to print them
COtherwise they are barely visible
DIt lowers the production cost
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Otherwise they are barely visible
1. A globe is a small-scale model of a huge planet. 2. At true scale, elevations and depressions would be barely noticeable. 3. So they are purposely exaggerated, not because of cost or paper thickness. _Source: Wikipedia, Globe, Terrestrial and planetary_
