Today in class we talked about interesting/shocking stories and we also reviewed questions that might be on the test. Below are some questions that are true/false but may be changed around to be made true/false and some other random questions.
- Every places occupies a unique location or position on Earth's surface (true)
- Geographers use maps as their primary tool, for not only identifying points on the surface but also as a means to compare phenomenon between different places (true)- because you can compare different phenomenon by looking at different maps, like democratic: blue and republic: red... seeing which states are red and which are blue to find out republic or democratic.
- What is the art in science of making maps? cartography: A cartographer makes maps.
Cartography is much different because people use to use maps physically (paper maps) but now use them on his or her phones.
- There are 24 different time zones in the world
- What is the prime meridian? The 0 degrees of longitude; runs north to south; runs through Greenwich Village
- What is the equator? The 0 degrees of latitude; runs east to west; runs through Venezuela
True/false?- 0 degrees longitude is always the prime meridian
- What does GPS stand for: Global Positioning System
- Global mean time: What time is at Greenwich
