Which statement best exemplifies how the residential spatial patterns of wealthy urbanites in the United State compare with those of the wealthy urbanites in most European cities?
European and US city dwellers show a very similar pattern: most of the wealthy urbanites live in the central business district (CBD)
In both European and US cities, wealthy urbanites live on large estates far removed from the urban core.
In European cities, wealthy urbanites live in the exurbs and typically telecommute, while wealthy US urbanites live in the CBD.
In European cities, although wealthy people live in the suburb, they also keep a high presence in the inner rings; in the United States, the wealthy tend to collect in the suburbs.
Both types of cities conform to the sector model: those with wealth are concentrated in a wedge going from the urban core to the suburbs, typically along a major transportation route.
If a country with a rapidly growing population were to implement a strict policy of only one child per couple, how would its population pyramid change from the time of implementation to twenty years after?
The pyramid's shape would change from a triangle to a column as the number of younger children dramatically decreased.
The pyramid would not change; it would be columnar in shape for both time pyramids.
The pyramid would still have a wide base twenty years later because of demographic momentum.
The pyramid would show decline at the base after twenty years because of low replacement-level fertility.
The pyramid would be wide at the top after twenty years as the population policy would lead to a problematic dependency ratio.
On the basis of the data, how does a country's level of urbanization relate to its labor-force composition?
Highly urbanized countries, like Australia, concentrate on services.
Less urbanized countries, like Zimbabwe, have a highly diverse labor force.
Urbanized countries tend to have less industry.
Less urbanized countries tend to have less agricultural production.
There is no clear relationship between urbanization and labor-force composition.
Given Bangladesh's data, its position in the demographic transition model is most likely:
Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3
Stage 4
Stage 5
If the chart contained an additional column with data showing educational attainment of women, what would the data be likely to reveal?
Educational attainment would be highest in Zimbabwe because service-based jobs require low levels of education.
Educational attainment would be highest in Bangladesh because of increasing growth in microcredit for women.
Educational attainment would be the same in Australia and Bangladesh, where industry and service occupation percentages are higher.
Educational attainment would likely be highest in Australia, where service-based occupations dominate.
Data on women's educational attainment would be likely to reveal that the three countries differed only minimally.
New York City and Los Angeles are 3,000 miles apart in terms of absolute distance, but they are quite connected economically and culturally. What explains this connectivity?
The cities have similar transportation and communications infrastructure, which facilitates interaction.
Both have diverse populations, which leads to a common cultural experience.
Both have high populations, which counteract distance in the gravity model.
They have similar economic bases, which leads to higher trade between the two.
Both have airports that allow for large jets and frequent arrivals and departures, and so travel between the two cities is very easy.
Agricultural production in the developed world is difficult to classify as part of the primary economy. Why?
Production no longer happens primarily in a field but rather through high-tech methods such as hydroponics.
Agriculture is primarily controlled by large agribusinesses that encourage large-scale industrial production.
With so little of the labor force engaged in this economic activity, the category essentially no longer exists for the developed world.
Developed countries now outsource all of their agricultural production from the developing world.
Agricultural production is still very much a primary economic activity in the developed world, and its methods are comparable to those of the developing world.
Many countries in developing regions are experiencing dramatic declines in their fertility rates. What is the main cause for this pattern?
Women are marrying less frequently because many developing countries struggle with gender imbalances.
Women are becoming more educated and more active in the formal economy.
Women's access to contraception is getting better.
As more men in developing countries emigrate, women are left with fewer potential marriage partners.
Women are dying from infectious diseases before they reach childbearing age.
Java's population density, by far the highest of Indonesia's 13,000-plus islands, is attributable to:
volcanic activity, which feeds the soil.
government limitations on which islands Indonesians can inhabit.
Java's size-- it is the biggest island in Indonesia.
Java's strategic geographic location.
Java's accessibility as an island.
The cultural landscape is an example of the human-environment relationship in that
it shows how the physical environment has been negatively altered to fulfill the needs of a particular cultural group.
it shows how humans have reshaped a local space to meet their needs.
It shows how various cultural groups have suffered or thrived on the basis of geographic conditions.
It shows how spatial variation in this relationship might be used for finding ways to curb environmental damang resulting from human activity.
The cultural landscape involves investigation and analysis of human activity, but it does not consider the physical environment.
