The geographic term “Asia” was originally used by ancient Greeks to describe the civilizations east of their empire. Ancient Asian peoples, however, saw themselves as a varied and diverse mix of cultures—not a collective group. Today, the term “Asia” is used as a cultural concept, while subregion classifications describe the distinct geopolitical identities of the continent. These classifications are Western Asia, Central Asia, Southern Asia, Eastern Asia, Southeastern Asia, and Northern Asia.

Answer:
C) homogeneity
Explanation:
All regions possess all of these characteristics, except for homogeneity. Homogeneity is a characteristic that describes a great similarity among the units that compose a region. Moreover, it implies a greater similarity between these internal units than between its units and those of other regions. The aspects analyzed in order to judge these similarities are usually physical (climatic zones, botanic areas, etc.) or social (historical or cultural regions).
The correct answer is - secondary economic activity.
The developing countries are trying to boost and develop their economies by developing the industry. They build lots of industrial facilities, factories, and instead of selling the raw materials to the more developed countries, they start to use the raw materials for their own purpose and manufacture them into products ready for the market. This production can include anything from creating steel from the iron ore, make juices from the fruits and vegetables, use the cotton for making clothes etc., so all in all making final products that directly end up on the market, thus making a bigger profit.
Rural settlement means people living in rural areas, that is, not in the cities (which are urban areas).
Less and less people live in rural areas because there are less jobs there than in the city as our farming becomes more and more industrialized - before more people had to work on the farm, as more things had to be done by hand.
