1.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of tourism in

mountains?
2. How a rain shadow is formed? Illustrate the process of
forming rain shadow.
3. Explain the importance role of forest in preventing flood
disaster in the mountainous area.

4. Explain the economy of the mountainous area.

The people in mountainous area do farming and getting natural
resources like gold, silver, lead. The land use of mountainous area
depend on the climate. It also depend on the steep of the mountain. They
grow on the slopes of the mountains. They grow fruit trees cutting
terraces on the slopes. They keep animals like yaks, llamas, alpacas.
There are large number of metals and minerals.
5. Illustrate the water cycle with labels.

6. What are causes of river pollution?

7. Define the topographic map and relief map.

8. How can we show height on a map? Explain about this?

We can show height on a map using contour lines. Contours lines
are joining places that are the same height above sea level and they
do not cross each other.

9. How does the acid rain form?

When fuels are burned in factories, power stations and motor
vehicles, they produce Sulphur Dioxide and other gases into the
air. These gases dissolve in droplets of moisture in the atmosphere
and form droplets of acid rain.
10. Where were the towns and villages built? Why did they
build there?

11. What is river’s source? What are the main types of river
sources?
The river’s source is its starting point. The main types rivers
sources are
- Rain and melted snow
- Springs
- Lakes and glaciers

12. Write the brief description about the River Nile.
