Question

1. All of the following are ways to show information on a map except--

Answer 1

1. The ways to show information on a map include using symbols, colors, and contours, except B. Themes.

What is the information shown on a map?

A map displays information about distance and direction, using symbols, colors, and contours.

Typically, maps are drawn to carefully reduced scales.

Some maps display the following information:

• Political boundaries
• Population
• Physical features
• Natural resources
• Roads
• Climates
• Elevation (topography)
• Economic activities.

2. The Black Forest of Germany and forests located in China and America suffer from C. Acid Rain.

What is acid rain?

Acid rain refers to sulphuric or nitric acid, falling to the ground from air, in the form of fog, hail, and dust.

Originating from atmospheric pollution, acid rain is known to cause environmental harm to:

• Trees
• Freshwaters and soils
• Aquatic life-forms
• Paintings (peeling)
• Steel structures such as bridges
• Stone buildings and sculptures
• Human life.

3. The source that provides the most accurate information about a group's culture is D. Fieldwork.

What is fieldwork?

Fieldwork is research conducted in a natural environment for obtaining primary data.

Fieldwork gives the most accurate information about a group's culture better than Satellite Images, Elevation Maps, and the World Globe because it is based on the group's space.

4. During the time of Christopher Columbus, the continent that would have been most accurately mapped was A. Europe.

What is mapping?

Mapping refers to the creation of maps.

For instance, Europe was most accurately mapped than Asia, South America, and North America during the time of Columbus.

5. The two bodies of water greatly affected by irrigation are B. the Aral Sea and the Colorado River.

What is irrigation?

Irrigation is the application of water to soil to meet the needs of growing plants and ensure a bountiful harvest for farmers.

Types of irrigation systems include:

• Sprinkler irrigation
• Surface irrigation
• Drip irrigation
• Sub-irrigation
• Manual irrigation.

6. Mountainous regions create flat land for farming by B. Terracing.

What is terracing?

Terracing is the method of growing crops on the sides of hills or mountains by constructing specific ridged platforms (or graduated terraces).

Terracing decreases erosion and surface runoff, supporting the growth of crops requiring irrigation, such as rice.

7. When put together, a line of latitude and longitude creates A. Absolute location.

What is an absolute location?

An absolute location refers to a precise point on Earth or another defined space.

8. The process that brings water to crops is A. Irrigation, as previously defined.

9. Temperature, precipitation, and seasons are all C. Climate Characteristics.

What are climate characteristics?

Climate characteristics refer to climate features such as windiness, humidity, cloud cover, atmospheric pressure, and fogginess

10. Tropical/hot climate found between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn is referred to as the D. Low Latitude Climate Zone.

What does the low latitude climate zone imply?

The low latitude climate zone implies a tropical climate with warm temperatures.

Thus, the low latitude zone covers the areas of the earth south of the equator and north of about 30 degrees latitude.
