Which of the following is NOT one of the Five Themes of Geography?

• Location

• Distribution

• Region

• Human - Environment Interaction

Scale is

• The relationship between the length of an object on a map and that feature on the landscape

• The system used by geographers to transfer locations from a globe to a map

• The extent of spread of a phenomenon over a given area

• The difference in elevation between two points in an area

If the scale of a map is 1:24,000, then 1 inch on the map represents how many FEET on Earth?

• 1

• 2,400

• 24,400

• 2,000

A system for transferring locations from a globe to a flat map is

• Scale

• Distribution

• Projection

• Rendition

Distortion is especially severe on

• Globes

• Small scale map

• Large scale map

• Topographic maps

The acquisition of data about Earth’s surface from a satellite orbiting the plant or from another long-distance method is

• Long-Range Data

• GIS

• GPS

• Remote sensing

A formal region

• Is based on the perception of the local people

• Has clearly defined physical criteria, cultural traits or governmental boundary

• Includes the core and periphery of economic development

• Is a product of political, economic or social interaction

An example of a perceptual region is

• The wheat-growing region

• The Sahara Desert

• Nevada

• The South

Diffusion which moves from large cities to smaller cities towns, skipping over the rural areas between is

• Relocation diffusion

• Stimulus diffusion

• Hierarchical diffusion

• Contagious diffusion

Situation identifies a place by its

• Location relative to other objects

• Mathematical location on Earth’s surface

• Unique physical characteristics

• Primary dimensions
