D Correct answer
Explanation

A compass marks four cardinal directions (North, East, South, West) and four ordinal directions (North-East, South-East, South-West, North-West). 'North-South' is not a single compass direction - it's a line or axis that combines two opposite cardinal directions, so it's not marked as a single direction on any standard compass.
