<h3><u>Answer:</u> </h3>
  • The traditional definition of Geography comes from the "Greek" term 'Geographia' as coined by the father of Geography, Eratosthenes. It defines Geography as 'description of the Earth' ('Geo' meaning Earth, and 'graphia' meaning description).
  • The current standard definition of Geography is a science which deals with the 'description', 'distribution', and 'interaction of the diverse physical', 'biological', and "cultural features" of the "earth's surface".
<h3><u>Explanation:</u> </h3>
  • Not all the sub-disciplines of Geography were discovered in ancient times and thus, the scope of the study was limited.
  • Later, as the applications of Geography started coming to light, sub-disciplines in the larger discipline of Geography were discovered and thus the definition conventionally kept changing to broadly include the newly discovered applications of Geography.

34kurt

Answer:

Correct answer is A. The Middle East

Explanation:

There are 14 members of OPEC and most of them located in Middle East, including United Arab Emirates and Libya. Qatar was member until 2018.

None of the countries from Europe are members of this organization.

The same thing is with Central Asia, while from South Africa we only have Angola.

It is interesting that some of the largest petroleum exporting countries are not members of this organization.
