How does the geographic theme of place help us understand life on Earth?
horrorfan [7]

Answer: i hope this will help you understand what i am saying

Explanation:  

Location

Place

Human-Environment Interaction

Movement

Region

Location

Every point on Earth has a location. Location can be described in two different ways:

Absolute location, a location as described by its latitude and longitude on the Earth. For example, the coordinates of Albany, New York are 42.6525° N, 73.7572° W.

Relative location, a location as described by where it is compared to something else. For example, Albany, New York is roughly 140 miles north of New York City.

Every site on Earth has a unique absolute location, which can be identified with a reference grid (such as latitude and longitude). Maps and globes can be used to find location and can also be used to convey other types of geographical information. Map projections are used to represent the three-dimensional Earth on a two-dimensional map. The earth's position relative to the sun affects climate, seasons, and time zones.[1]

Place

A place is an area that is defined by everything in it. Places have physical characteristics, such as landforms and plant and animal life, as well as human characteristics, such as economic activities and languages.[1] All places have features that give them personality and distinguish them from other places.

Toponym: a place name, especially one derived from a topographical feature.

Site: an area of ground on which a town, building, or monument is constructed.

Situation: the location and surroundings of a place.

Population: the number of people that live in the area.

Human-environment interaction

Further information: human-environment interaction

This theme describes how people interact with the environment, and how the environment responds, with three key concepts:[5]

Dependency: Humans depend on the environment.

Adaptation: Humans adapt to the environment.

Modification: Humans modify the environment.

Sub-themes include "the earth as an environmental system" (including the role and problems of technology, environmental hazards and limits, and adaptation) and "ethics and values" (differing cultural values and the trade-off between economic development and environmental protection).[1]

Movement

Movement is the travel of people, goods, and ideas from one location to another. Examples of movement include the United States' westward expansion, the Information Revolution, and immigration. New devices such as the airplane and the Internet allow physical and ideological goods to be transferred long distances in short time intervals. A person's travel from place to place, and the actions they perform there are also considered movement.

Places are connected by movement:[1]

Methods of transportation (transportation geography) – public transportation, private transportation, freight transportation

Movement in everyday life

History of movement

Economic factors influencing movement

Energy or mass induced movement – the water cycle, tectonic plates, movements within ecosystems, etc.

Global interdependence

Models of human interaction, including gravity models and central place theory

Region

Regions are areas with distinctive characteristics: human characteristics, such as demographics or politics, and physical characteristics, such as climate and vegetation. For example, the US is a political region because it shares one governmental system.

Regions may have clear, well-defined borders or vague boundaries.[1]

Uniform region – "defined by some uniform cultural or physical characteristic", such as the Bible Belt or New England[1]

Functional region – space organized around a focal point, such as a metropolitan area[1]

Cultural diversity – regions are a way to understand human diversity.[1]

History

The five themes of geography were published in the 1984 Guidelines for Geographic Education: Elementary and Secondary Schools by the National Council for Geographic Education/Association of American Geographers Joint Committee on Geographic Education.[1] The committee included Salvatore J. Natoli, Richard G. Boehm, James B. Kracht, David A. Lanegran, Janice J. Monk, and Robert W. Morrill.[2] The themes were not a "new geography" but rather a conceptual structure for organizing information about geography.[1]

The themes became widespread in American social science education and were used for teacher training by the National Geographic Society's statewide alliances. They also played a role in reestablishing geography in school curricula.[1]

In 1992, a National Assessment of Educational Progress consensus group said that the five themes are useful for teaching, but that for assessment, geography should be divided into the three topics of "space and place", "environment and society", and "spatial dynamic and connections".[1]

The five themes continue to be used as an educational approach in many educational outlets.[3] As of 2012, they are included in the National Council for the Social Studies elementary school standards and in state social studies standards.[6]

Answer:

1.

there is a point on which most economists agree, it is that trade among nations makes the world better off. Yet international trade can be one of the most contentious of political issues, both domestically and between governments.

When a firm or an individual buys a good or a service produced more cheaply abroad, living standards in both countries increase. There are other reasons consumers and firms buy abroad that also make them better off—the product may better fit their needs than similar domestic offerings or it may not be available domestically. In any case, the foreign producer also benefits by making more sales than it could selling solely in its own market and by earning foreign exchange (currency) that can be used by itself or others in the country to purchase foreign-made products.

2.

America cannot have a growing economy or lift the wages and incomes of our citizens unless we continue to reach beyond our borders and sell products, produce, and services to the 95% of the world’s population that lives outside the United States.

On a pay stub, what is the difference between "Net Pay" and YTD Net Pay"?
TEA [102]

C. Net Pay is how much you've made during a pay period, YTD Net Pay is how you've made this year.

We might also note the difference between net pay and gross pay.

Gross pay is how much you earned before any taxes and deductions, net pay what you take home after taxes and deductions.

Let's use an example, and for the sake of state tax numbers, let's say you live in Minnesota. If you had a job where your total amount earned in a week (gross pay) was $1,000, and you got a weekly paycheck--assuming you are single and claiming no special tax deductions:

Federal income tax would be about $125

Social Security withholding about $60

Medicare withholding about $15

State tax withholding about $60

... So, not counting any other deductions you might include (such as your portion of health or dental insurance premiums, etc), with a gross pay of $1,000 your net pay would be about $740 per week. Year-to-date numbers would track that net pay total as it accumulated throughout the tax year.
