Geography's relevance to science and society arises from a distinctive and integrating set of perspectives through which geographers view the world around them. This chapter conveys a sense of what is meant by a geographic perspective, whether it be applied in research, teaching, or practice. Due to space limitations, it does not attempt to cite the many excellent examples of research illustrating geography's perspectives; the citations refer mainly to broad-ranging summaries of geographic research that are intended as resources for further reading.
Taking time to understand geography's perspectives is important because geography can be difficult to place within the family of academic disciplines. Just as all phenomena exist in time and thus have a history, they also exist in space and have a geography. Geography and history are therefore central to understanding our world and have been identified as core subjects in American education. Clearly, this kind of focus tends to cut across the boundaries of other natural and social science disciplines. Consequently, geography is sometimes viewed by those unfamiliar with the discipline as a collection of disparate specialties with no central core or coherence.
Answer:
From the political map of a continent, we learn on <u>countries</u> and <u>cities</u> within such countries, especially in <u>capitol cities</u>.
Explanation:
From the political map of a continent, we learn on <u>countries</u> and <u>cities</u> within such countries, especially in <u>capitol cities</u>. In this case, we may learn from continents:
(i) The name, location and geographical extension of every country within the continent on map.
(ii) The name and location of most important city in every country within the continent on map.
In distance, it's something like maybe 245,000 miles ... corresponding to the
several Apollo missions during which a Command and Service module entered
lunar orbit and swung around the back side of the moon with astronauts aboard.
The farthest from Earth that a human has ever gone <em>and walked on solid ground</em>
is roughly 238,000 miles, corresponding to the six Apollo missions that landed
six pairs of astronauts on the near side of the surface of the moon, between 1969
and 1972 .

Explanation:
The ratio of circles to squares is equal to number of circles (C) divided by number of squares (S)
Hence,
On simplifying we get -
The sum of number of circles and square is equal to
