Chapter 2 Questions 1. The study of population is important for three reasons: 1) More people are alive at this time ? nearly 7 billion ? than at any point in Earth?s long history 2) The world?s population increased at a faster rate during the second half of the twentieth century than ever before in history 3) Virtually all global population growth is concentrated in LDC?s (lesser developed countries) At one point, more developed countries had children. Now lesser developed countries have higher amounts of children, and they don?t have the resources to raise these children. Population geographers are never wrong, always right.

Claire Bell 2A Unit 1 Questions 1. Geographers ask where things are and why they are there so that they can explain its reason and activities. They understand that over the course of time things change, impacting future actions. 2. Geographers organize space by place. All places on Earth have special features that distinguish them from other places. Geographers characterize place by human and physical characteristics. They divide space into different sections, such as continents. They then divide each new place into smaller subdivisions, such as countries, states, and then cities.

At that time, the place had a great reputation for wealth, which spurred the first European explorations along the African coast. What survives is a relatively impoverished town of some 35,000 people providing central place functions for the surrounding area and seeking to attract some tourist business based on its legendary name.? ? 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
