1 Cairo, Egypt is located near the mouth of the Nile River.
map To learn about geographic patterns and to understand change over time. Location Melbourne, Australia (37*S, 145*E) Cairo, Egypt is located near the mouth of the Nile River. Place Physical features and cultural characteristics of a location.

2 United States and Canada
Region United States and Canada It is organized around a set of interactions and connections between places. It is a region in which people perceive, or see, the characteristics of the region in the same way. Human-Environment Interaction One might see it good for recreational activities; another might see it as an opportunity for raising citrus, olives or grapes.

3 Movement How far across the earth a person, an idea, or a product travels. The amount of time it takes for a person, an idea, or a product to travel. Psychological distance refers to the way people view distance. -As we become familiar with a place, we think it is closer than it is. -Less familiar places seem further away.

4 They help you see the types of landforms
and bodies of water found in a specific area. They show features on the earth’s surface that human’s created. That may include cities, states, provinces, territories, or countries. 1) Qualitative – use colors, symbols, dots, or lines to help you see the patterns related to a specific idea. 2) Cartograms – used to present information about a country based on a set of data other than land area. 3) Flow-Line – Illustrate movement of goods, ideas, animals, or even glaciers.

5 3rd Planet sun medium-sized Milky Way 93 million miles 1. Core
2. Mantle 3. Crust It maintained that the earth was once a supercontinent that divided and slowly drifted apart over millions of years.

6 heat on the earth 71 Currents – act like rivers through the ocean. Waves – swells or ridges produced by winds. Tides – regular rises and falls of the ocean created by gravitational pull of the moon or the sun. 95 They are a result of glacial action.

7 It is a “Hot Spot” where magma from deep in the mantle
Pacific Plate 1. Divergent boundary – plates move apart, spreading horizontally 2. Convergent boundary – plates collide, causing one to slide under the other or both to crumple. 3. Transform boundary – plates slide past one another It is a “Hot Spot” where magma from deep in the mantle rises and melts in the lithosphere. Volcanic action produces fertile soil and the hot springs, steam, and heat generated by the magma are tapped for energy.

8 Process that breaks rock into smaller pieces.
Occurs when rock is changed into a new substance as a result Of interaction between elements in the air or water and the minerals in the rock. The motion picks up lose material and moves it down stream. Similar to water erosion. Wind speed must be 11 mph before fine sediment can be moved. Changing of landforms by slowly moving glaciers.

9 The earth’s tilt and its revolution around the sun.
June 21,22 Dec 22,23 ~Sept 23 March 21 Solar Energy Water Vapor Water Vapor Landforms and bodies of water slowly slowly rapidly heat increases moisture Air movement solar energy very rapidly

10 El Nino can cause floods and mudslides.
1. Wind and Ocean Currents 3. Elevation 2. Zones of latitude 4. Topography El Nino can cause floods and mudslides. La Nina greenhouse effect That it is apart of the earth’s natural cycle
