Study Notes
Water Resource Questions
- Question 11: The most likely explanation for the graph is a. Farmers diverting water from the lake for agriculture.
- Question 12: The most significant water usage is agriculture. This is based on the context of the questions and potential for large water usage.
- Question 13: Yes, this location is stressed. This is because the region uses more than 70% of the precipitation, exceeding the threshold for a stressed region.
- Question 14: No, this region should not agree to allow the company to come in. This decision is based on the significant water usage required by the company (5000 m³ per person per year), which would further strain the already stressed water resources in the region.
- Question 15: The pie chart should show that 97% of the water on Earth is saltwater, while 3% is freshwater.
Map Practice - Lewis Freshwater Test
- The map shows various locations labeled A, B, C, D and E with their elevation values.
- Point E has the highest elevation at 2773 meters.
- Point F is located at 50 meters elevation and acts as a reference point.
- The map depicts the distances of locations A, B, C, D and E from point F.
- Point E is the furthest from point F at 620,000 meters away.
- The shaded areas on the map potentially represent different elevation zones or features like river basins.
