active inhabitants

more males than females

Détails de la réponse

A broad-based population pyramid is composed mainly of young dependants. A population pyramid is a graphical representation of a population's age and sex distribution. A broad-based pyramid has a wide base, indicating a high proportion of children and young people relative to older individuals. This means that there are more young dependants in the population, and they are not yet part of the active working population. As a result, this type of pyramid typically indicates a high fertility rate and a youthful population.

Question 4 Rapport

A sharp decrease in the population of herbivores in an ecosystem is likely to lead to?

an increase in the amount of plant cover

a decrease in the population of rodents

an increase inthe population of rodents

a decrease in the population of saprophytes

Détails de la réponse

A sharp decrease in the population of herbivores in an ecosystem is likely to lead to an increase in the amount of plant cover. This is because with fewer herbivores consuming plants, there will be less pressure on the plant population. As a result, the plants will have more resources available to grow and reproduce, leading to an increase in their overall cover. Additionally, with more plants available, other animals may also benefit, which could indirectly lead to an increase in their populations as well.

Question 5 Rapport

Which of the following sets of rocks is organically formed?

Rock salt, breccia and conglometerate

Clay, mudstone and sandstone

peat, chalk and limestone

Girt, coal and shale

Détails de la réponse

The set of rocks that is organically formed is peat, chalk and limestone. Peat is formed by the accumulation of partially decayed organic matter in wetlands and is often used as fuel. Chalk is a soft, white, porous sedimentary rock composed of the shells of microscopic marine organisms. Limestone is a sedimentary rock composed mainly of calcium carbonate, which is also formed from the accumulation of the shells and skeletons of marine organisms. Therefore, peat, chalk, and limestone are all formed through the accumulation of organic matter or the remains of organisms, making them organic rocks. In contrast, the other options such as rock salt, breccia, conglometerate, clay, mudstone, sandstone, grit, coal, and shale are not formed through organic processes.

Question 9 Rapport

In a humid areas, farmers add lime to the soil to? development

facilitate the absorption of nutrients

encourage the development of green leaves

act as fertilizer

reduce acidity

Détails de la réponse

In a humid area, farmers add lime to the soil to reduce acidity. Soil acidity is a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions in the soil, and a lower pH value indicates higher acidity. In humid areas, rainfall can cause leaching of basic nutrients, such as calcium and magnesium, from the soil, which can lead to increased soil acidity over time. This can make it difficult for crops to absorb essential nutrients, which can hinder their growth and development. By adding lime to the soil, farmers can raise the soil pH, making it less acidic and more alkaline. This, in turn, can facilitate the absorption of nutrients by the crops and improve their overall growth and development. Additionally, lime can also act as a fertilizer, providing the soil with essential nutrients that can further support crop growth.

Question 12 Rapport

The highest landforms in Nigeria are developed on?

sandstones

granites

basalts

shales

Détails de la réponse

The highest landforms in Nigeria are developed on granites. Granite is an intrusive igneous rock that is formed from the slow cooling of magma deep beneath the Earth's surface. It is composed mainly of quartz, feldspar, and mica minerals, which give it a coarse-grained texture and make it very hard and durable. In Nigeria, the highest landforms, such as the Jos Plateau, are developed on granites that were formed during the Pan-African orogeny, a geological event that occurred about 600 million years ago. The Jos Plateau is a large, elevated region in central Nigeria that rises to over 1,200 meters above sea level. The plateau is characterized by a rugged, hilly terrain and has a cool, temperate climate due to its high elevation. Sandstones, basalts, and shales are also common rock types in Nigeria, but they do not form the highest landforms in the country.

Spruce

Mahogany

Détails de la réponse

Spruce is the most suitable tree for pulp and paper production. This is because spruce wood has long fibers and a high cellulose content, which are both important properties for making paper products. Additionally, spruce wood has a relatively low lignin content, which makes it easier to pulp and process into paper. Obeche, ebony, and mahogany are all hardwood trees, and while they may have desirable properties such as durability and strength, they are not typically used for paper production due to their low fiber content and high lignin content.

Question 15 Rapport

Urban centres are best distinguished from rural, settlements by their?

morphology and location

population and function

site and function

morphology and demography

Détails de la réponse

Urban centers are best distinguished from rural settlements by their population and function. Urban centers are large, densely populated areas that are characterized by a high level of economic and social activity. They are typically centers of commerce, industry, and culture, with a diverse population that includes people from a wide range of backgrounds and social classes. In contrast, rural settlements are smaller, less densely populated areas that are typically characterized by agricultural or natural resource-based economies. They are often located in rural or remote areas, far from major population centers. While the morphology (physical structure and layout) of urban and rural areas may differ, it is the population and function that are the most fundamental differences between the two. Urban areas are distinguished by their large and diverse populations, as well as their role as centers of commerce, industry, and culture. Rural areas, on the other hand, are characterized by smaller, more homogenous populations, and economies that are based on agriculture or natural resource extraction.

Question 16 Rapport

Sedimentary rocks are easily recognized in the field because they?

form round hills

are faulted

form vertical columns

occur in layers

Détails de la réponse

Sedimentary rocks are easily recognized in the field because they occur in layers. Sedimentary rocks are formed from the accumulation and lithification (hardening) of sediment, which is often laid down in layers by wind, water, or ice. As each layer of sediment is deposited and buried, it forms a distinct layer in the resulting rock. These layers, also known as strata, can often be seen in exposed rock faces or in cliff formations, making it easy to recognize sedimentary rocks in the field. The layers may also contain visible fossils, which are another characteristic feature of sedimentary rocks. The other options listed do not apply to all sedimentary rocks, as they can occur in a variety of shapes and forms, depending on the geological processes that formed them.

Question 19 Rapport

Seasons are recognized within the tropics primarily on the basis of

air masses

temperature

rainfall

evaporation

wind velocity

Détails de la réponse

Seasons within the tropics are primarily recognized based on rainfall patterns. The tropics are characterized by high temperatures throughout the year, but the amount and distribution of rainfall varies. In the tropical regions, there are two main seasons, the wet season and the dry season. The wet season, also known as the rainy season, is characterized by heavy rainfall and high humidity, while the dry season is characterized by little to no rainfall and lower humidity. These seasons are caused by the movement of the Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), which is a low-pressure belt that moves north and south of the equator, following the seasonal shift of the sun. The ITCZ brings heavy rainfall during the wet season, and its absence during the dry season causes drought conditions. Therefore, rainfall is used as the primary indicator of seasons in the tropics.

Question 20 Rapport

The major constituents of a typical soil are

gravel, sand ,silt and clay

mineral matter, organic matter, air and water

stone, mineral matter, pore spaces and micro- organism

calcium, magnesium, potassium and sodium

Détails de la réponse

The major constituents of a typical soil are mineral matter, organic matter, air, and water. Mineral matter refers to the non-living components of soil, such as rocks and minerals, which provide nutrients to plants. Organic matter refers to the living and dead organisms in soil, such as plants, animals, and microorganisms, which play an important role in soil fertility and structure. Air and water are also important components of soil, providing the oxygen and moisture that plants and microorganisms need to survive. Together, these four components form the basic structure of soil and provide the necessary conditions for plant growth and the sustainability of the ecosystem. While soil may also contain other elements, such as gravel, sand, silt, clay, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium, these are not considered major constituents of a typical soil.

Question 21 Rapport

Subsistence farming is characterized by?

dominance of cash crops, low capital input and dependence on simple tools

dominance of food crops, small holdings anfd family labour

Dependence on family labour, small holdings and market orientation

Dependence on simple tools, labour intensity and high capital input

Détails de la réponse

Subsistence farming is characterized by the dominance of food crops, small holdings, and family labor. Subsistence farming is a type of agriculture where farmers produce food primarily for their own consumption, rather than for sale in markets. The focus of subsistence farming is on producing enough food to feed one's family and community, rather than generating profit. In subsistence farming, farmers typically have small plots of land and rely on their own labor and the labor of their family members to cultivate crops. They use simple tools such as hoes, machetes, and digging sticks, rather than heavy machinery or advanced technology. The crops produced are primarily for household consumption and may include staples such as maize, rice, cassava, and beans. While subsistence farmers may occasionally sell their surplus crops at local markets, their main goal is to produce enough food to feed their families throughout the year. This makes subsistence farming an important strategy for ensuring food security in many parts of the world, especially in rural areas where access to food may be limited.

An Africa country seeking to reduce unemployment through industrialization will most likely encourage?

capital - intensive industries

technology - intensive industries

small- scale industries

labour - intensive industries

Détails de la réponse

If an African country wants to reduce unemployment through industrialization, it is most likely to encourage labour-intensive industries. This is because labour-intensive industries require a lot of workers, which will create more jobs and reduce unemployment. In contrast, capital-intensive industries require a lot of capital investment, and technology-intensive industries require skilled workers, which may not be available in large numbers. Small-scale industries may also create jobs, but they may not have the capacity to create large-scale employment opportunities. Therefore, labour-intensive industries are the most viable option for reducing unemployment through industrialization in Africa.

The greatest problem facing lumbering in Tropical Africa is that the?

trees are often buttressed at the base

trees do not grow in pure stands

further expansion of saw- mill is not viable

demand is low

Détails de la réponse

The greatest problem facing lumbering in Tropical Africa is that the trees do not grow in pure stands. Unlike in some other parts of the world where trees are grown in neat plantations, in tropical Africa, trees tend to grow in mixed and uneven stands, making it difficult and costly to extract and process them for lumbering. Additionally, tropical African trees are often buttressed at the base, which can make it challenging to fell them and extract the valuable timber. These factors make it difficult for lumbering operations to be profitable and sustainable in the region. While further expansion of sawmills may not be viable in some areas due to market conditions, the main challenge facing lumbering in Tropical Africa is the lack of easily accessible and extractable trees due to their mixed and uneven stands.

Détails de la réponse

Dispersed rural settlements are most likely to be found in areas with abundant agricultural land and good surface drainage. This is because rural settlements rely heavily on agriculture as a means of livelihood, and abundant land is necessary to support their agricultural activities. Good surface drainage is also essential for agriculture, as it ensures that the soil is well-drained and prevents waterlogging, which can damage crops. Additionally, dispersed rural settlements tend to have a lower population density, which makes sense in areas with abundant agricultural land, as it allows for larger farming areas.

Détails de la réponse

One of the major limiting factors to the development of industries in developing countries is a low level of capital formation. This means that there is not enough money or financial resources available to invest in the development and growth of industries. Without sufficient capital, it is difficult for industries to acquire the necessary machinery, technology, and other resources needed for production. This leads to a lack of development in the industrial sector, which can further impact economic growth and development. As a result, countries with low levels of capital formation may struggle to attract foreign investment, generate employment opportunities, and improve the standard of living for their citizens.

The development of these cities as the capital cities of their countries was a deliberate decision aimed at creating a centralized location for the country's government and administration. The cities were designed to have modern infrastructure, large government buildings, and public spaces to support the work of government officials and agencies. Additionally, the development of these cities helped to promote economic growth and development in their respective countries by attracting businesses and investment. While cities such as Chicago, Calcutta, and New Delhi are important cities, they were not purposefully developed as the seat of government.

Détails de la réponse

Plantation agriculture may be described as a system characterized by large-scale production, monoculture, and centralized management. Plantation agriculture is a form of commercial farming that involves the cultivation of a single crop on a large scale. The crops grown are usually cash crops like coffee, tea, rubber, or sugar cane, and they are grown for sale in national or international markets. The production is usually concentrated on a large tract of land owned by a single entity or corporation, with a centralized management structure that oversees the cultivation, harvesting, and processing of the crops. Monoculture, or the growing of a single crop, is a defining feature of plantation agriculture, as it allows for the efficient use of resources and maximizes yields.
