Dependency ratio is determined by
Antwoorddetails
Dependency ratio is determined by the age structure of a population. It is a measure of the number of dependents (people who are not in the labor force) in relation to the number of working-age people. The dependency ratio is calculated by dividing the number of dependents (typically children under 15 and adults over 65) by the number of working-age people (usually defined as those aged 15-64). The result is expressed as a ratio or percentage. For example, a country with a high proportion of young and old people relative to the number of working-age adults will have a high dependency ratio. This means that there are relatively more people who are dependent on those who are working to support them. Conversely, a country with a lower proportion of dependents relative to the number of working-age adults will have a lower dependency ratio, meaning that there are relatively fewer people who are dependent on those who are working to support them. Factors such as the rate of natural increase (births minus deaths) and net migration can impact the age structure of a population, which in turn can affect the dependency ratio. However, the age structure of the population is the primary determinant of the dependency ratio.

The action of wind in a desert include the following except a
Antwoorddetails
The action of wind in a desert does not include glaciation. Glaciation is a geological process that involves the erosion and transportation of materials by glaciers, which are huge masses of ice. Since glaciers require extremely cold temperatures, they cannot exist in deserts, which are known for their hot and dry conditions. On the other hand, the other three options - abrasion, attrition, and deflation - are all common forms of wind erosion that can shape the landscape in desert environments. Abrasion refers to the grinding or scraping of rocks and other materials by blowing sand or other particles. Attrition refers to the wearing down of rocks and other materials through collisions with each other. Deflation refers to the lifting and removal of loose particles, such as sand and dust, from the surface of the ground by wind.

Antwoorddetails
The transport type being described in the question is pipelines. Pipelines are not flexible and can be very expensive to construct. They are typically made of metal and can be damaged by environmental factors or accidents, leading to spillage. Pipelines are commonly used to transport oil, gas, and other liquids over long distances. While they can be an efficient and safe mode of transport, their inflexibility and potential for damage can be considered as demerits.
Vraag 6 Verslag
One of the following is the most correct in regards to desert erosional landforms
Antwoorddetails
Among the given options, "Yardang" is the most correct desert erosional landform. A yardang is a long, narrow, and steep-sided ridge of rock that has been eroded by wind abrasion and deflation. These features typically form in regions with a consistent wind direction and where the rock is composed of a variety of hard and soft layers. As the wind blows across the landscape, it erodes away the softer rock layers, leaving behind the harder layers in a ridge-like shape. On the other hand, a Barchan is a crescent-shaped sand dune formed by wind action, typically found in deserts. Loess, on the other hand, is a type of sedimentary deposit that is made up of silt-sized particles, usually found in areas where wind has deposited the sediment. Self dunes are smaller, isolated dunes that form due to localized wind activity. Therefore, among the given options, only Yardang is a desert erosional landform.

Antwoorddetails
The correct chronological order of these mining activities is: Exploration → Exploitation → Refining → Transportation 1. Exploration: This is the initial step in mining where the potential mining site is identified, and surveys are conducted to assess the quality and quantity of minerals present in the area. 2. Exploitation: After identifying the site, the mining company starts the process of extracting the minerals from the earth. This is usually done by drilling or blasting the rocks to extract the minerals. 3. Refining: Once the minerals have been extracted, they are processed to remove impurities and obtain the desired mineral product. Refining involves various chemical and mechanical processes, depending on the type of mineral. 4. Transportation: After refining, the minerals are transported to the final destination where they will be used. This can involve shipping the minerals overseas or transporting them by truck or train to local factories for further processing. Therefore, the correct chronological order of these mining activities is Exploration → Exploitation → Refining → Transportation.
Vraag 9 Verslag
Which of the following belongs to the upper course of river.
Antwoorddetails
A V-shaped valley belongs to the upper course of a river. The upper course of a river is where the river first starts to flow and is characterized by steep, narrow valleys with fast-flowing water. As the river continues to flow, it begins to erode the sides of the valley and create a V-shape as it cuts deeper into the land. Over time, the river may also create meanders, which are curved sections of the river that form as the water erodes the outer banks and deposits sediment on the inner banks. An ox-bow lake can form when the river erodes the outer banks of a meander so much that it creates a new channel, leaving the old channel to become a lake. Artificial embankments are man-made structures built to control the flow of a river, typically for flood protection or irrigation purposes.

Vraag 11 Verslag
It is noon in place X, what is the time in a place 45oE
Antwoorddetails
To determine the time in a place that is 45 degrees east of another place, we need to consider the concept of time zones and how they are defined. The Earth is divided into 24 standard time zones, each of which is 15 degrees of longitude wide. This means that for every 15 degrees of longitude a location is east or west of the Prime Meridian (which runs through Greenwich, England), the time will be offset by one hour. Since Place X is not specified, we cannot determine its exact time zone. However, we can assume that it is in a time zone that is at least 45 degrees of longitude away from the Prime Meridian. This means that the time in Place X is at least 3 hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) or Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). If we move 45 degrees of longitude to the east of Place X, we are effectively going back in time by 3 hours, since each time zone is 15 degrees wide and corresponds to a one hour difference in time. Therefore, the time in a place that is 45 degrees east of Place X would be 3 hours behind the time in Place X. Assuming that it is currently noon in Place X, the time in a place 45 degrees east would be 9 am (3 hours behind noon).

Antwoorddetails
The greatest advantage of road transport over other types of transportation is its flexibility. Road transport allows for easy access to almost any location, including remote areas, and can reach places where other modes of transport cannot. It also allows for flexible routing and scheduling, meaning that goods can be transported according to the specific needs and requirements of the shipment. This makes road transport particularly well-suited for just-in-time delivery and other time-sensitive operations. While other modes of transport may be more suitable for certain types of cargo or for longer distances, the flexibility of road transport makes it an important part of the global logistics and transportation network.

Which of the following set of cities have been developed specifically as the seat of power
Antwoorddetails
The set of cities that have been developed specifically as the seat of power are Abuja, Brasilia, and Canberra. Abuja is the capital city of Nigeria and was chosen to replace Lagos as the capital in 1991 due to its central location, which made it a more neutral location for Nigeria's diverse population. The city was specifically designed to be the administrative center of the country with government buildings, embassies, and international organizations all located there. Brasilia is the capital city of Brazil and was built in the 1950s to replace Rio de Janeiro as the capital. The city was designed by urban planner Lúcio Costa and architect Oscar Niemeyer with a modernist style that emphasized the idea of progress and the future. Brasilia is home to the country's government institutions and serves as the center of politics and power in Brazil. Canberra is the capital city of Australia and was established in 1913 as a compromise between the two largest cities in Australia, Sydney and Melbourne, which both wanted to be the capital. Canberra was specifically designed to be the capital, with government buildings and institutions located there, as well as many national monuments and museums. Chicago, Ruhr, Kurosioro, New Delhi, and Culcutta were not specifically developed as the seat of power. While they may have important government buildings or institutions located there, they were not designed with the specific purpose of being the administrative center of their respective countries or regions.

Antwoorddetails
The state in Nigeria that produces at least 70% of the country's total rubber production is Delta State. Rubber is an important agricultural commodity in Nigeria, and it is mostly grown in the southern parts of the country where the climate and soil are suitable for its cultivation. Delta State, located in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria, is one of the major rubber producing states in the country. The state is known for its vast rubber plantations, which are cultivated by both smallholder farmers and large agribusinesses. The climate and soil in Delta State are ideal for rubber cultivation, and this has made the state a hub for rubber production in Nigeria. While Ogun State, Ondo State, and Cross River State also produce rubber, they do not contribute as much as Delta State to Nigeria's total rubber production. Therefore, it can be concluded that Delta State is the state that produces at least 70% of Nigeria's total rubber production.

A simple measure of the number of dependants that each 100 people in the productive years must support is
Antwoorddetails
The simple measure of the number of dependents that each 100 people in the productive years must support is called the "dependency ratio." The dependency ratio is a ratio that compares the number of dependent individuals, such as children or elderly people, to the number of working-age individuals in a population. The working-age population is typically defined as individuals between the ages of 15 and 64 years old. For example, if there are 50 dependent individuals for every 100 working-age individuals, the dependency ratio would be 50:100, or 50%. This means that each 100 people in the productive years must support 50 dependents. The dependency ratio is an important measure for understanding the financial and economic burden that dependent individuals can place on the working-age population. It is often used by policymakers to help plan for social security, healthcare, and other services that are necessary for the well-being of a population.
Vraag 39 Verslag
The flow of a river at the lower course is slow because
Antwoorddetails
The flow of a river at the lower course is slow because the gradient is greatly reduced. The gradient of a river refers to the slope or steepness of the riverbed. At the upper course of a river, the gradient is generally steep, which means that the river is flowing downhill quickly. However, as the river moves towards the lower course, the gradient decreases, causing the river to slow down. This is because the river has deposited much of its sediment, which has built up the riverbed and created a gentler slope. Additionally, the volume of water in the river also increases as it moves towards the lower course, which can also contribute to a slower flow. The increased volume means that the river has more water to move, and therefore it takes more time for the water to flow through the channel. In summary, the slow flow of a river at the lower course is due to the combination of a reduced gradient and an increase in the volume of water.
