The rule for four figure grid references is:

A. Northings followed by EastingsB. Eastings followed by Northings reading to the leftC. Eastings followed by Northings reading to the right hand hand

sideD. Eastings followed by Northings

You are most likely to find desertification:

A.In areas of drought.B.In arid areas between tropics.C.Where there is overgrazing and overcultivation.D.Where climate change and population pressure combine

The model implies that as Cameroon continues to develop it will:A. Health care is improvingB. Population growth increases significantlyC. Birth control is yet to make an impactD. They need less children as they are not needed to work on the

land

Why has population increased between Stage 1 and Stage 4 of the DTM?

A. The birth rate is highB. As a country develops its health care improves and fewer people

dieC. As a country develops the death rate fallsD. Massive immigration

Without the Greenhouse Effect the temperature of the planet

A. Remains the sameB. FallsC. Increases

Why are tropical rainforests so wet?

A. Due to the high temperaturesB. Because of the transpiration from the dense forestC. Due to convectional rainfallD. Because they are near large rivers like the Amazon

In the Burgess model why does housing get bigger as you move away from the centre?

A. People need more space for cars as they can’t use public transport easily.

B. Land is cheaper as you move away from the CBD.C. New houses are at the edge and people like bigger houses now.D. There is more space to build larger houses at the edge.

In order to lessen global warming we must:

A. Make holes in the layer of greenhouse gasesB. Diminish the amount/level of GHGsC. Thicken the ozone layer

Why do sweat shops exist?

A. Its cheaper to employ people to work in LEDCsB. High demand for cheap clothingC. People are desperate for work in LEDCsD. TNCs want to make the most profit

What is causing global warming?

A. A decrease in ozone layerB. A combination of natural cyclesC. Some places are coolingD. The distance between the earth and the sun is decreasing

The main contributing factor of desertification is

A. A location between the two lines of latitudeB. A dry, hot arid climateC. The overgrazing of landD. The lack of water

Why does the population grow rapidly in stage 2 of the DTM?

A. More children neededB. MigrationC. People live longer due to medical improvementD. Improvements in contraception

Because of the Greenhouse Effect:

A. Life on Earth is possibleB. The weather will become sunnierC. We will have more droughtD. We will have less polar bears

What are the places where clouds form?

A. Above water bodiesB. Higher in the troposphereC. At any point on the water cycle

We can attribute long term global temperature change to

A.Sea-level changesB.CO2 emissionsC.DeforestationD.The Greenhouse effect

The main contributor to the enhanced greenhouse effect is

A. Decomposing matter as they release gasesB. Human activity as it releases GHGC. Sun spots as it increases the amount of radiation the earth receivesD. Albedo as this affects the amount of radiation the earth receives

The main (economic) reason that retail shops are moving from the CBD to out of town is

A. Lower land prices and more spaceB. Increased car ownershipC. Convenience for customersD. Brownfield sites

The greenhouse effect

A. Is causing our global climate to warmB. Traps all radiation from the sunC. Is caused by the hole in the ozone layerD. Being enhanced by human influence, causing global warming

When a glacier retreats

A. The glacier moves back up the mountainB. Accumulation is greater than meltingC. The glacier is in equilibriumD. The glacier’s terminus moves back up the mountain

In the water cycle impermeable rock is likely to

A.Increase surface run-offB.Increase the risk of floodingC.Increase groundwater infiltrationD.Increases evaporation

An adaptation is

A. A trait or characteristic that an animal has to help it surviveB. A trait or characteristic that plants and animals have to help it

survive in its habitatC. Something plants and animals can do to make them better than

other animalsD. A change in evolution to help plants and animals survive
