The type of map that shows locations of land and bodies of water is called a physical map.

Here's why:

* Physical maps focus on the natural features of a region, like mountains, valleys, rivers, lakes, and oceans.

* They use different colors and symbols to represent these features, helping you understand the landforms and water bodies of an area.

Other types of maps exist, such as:

* Political maps: Show borders, countries, states, and major cities.

* Road maps: Show highways, roads, and other transportation routes.

* Thematic maps: Focus on specific topics, like population density or climate patterns.
