1Human geography primarily studies the relationship between:
A.Physical landforms and climate systems only
B.People and the places they create and use
C.Planetary orbits and solar radiation
D.Rock cycles and mineral formation only
Explanation: Human geography focuses on how people organise space, create places, and interact with environments. It examines population, settlements, economic activities, culture, and development patterns rather than purely physical earth processes.
2Which approach in human geography emphasises lived experience, meanings, and human values rather than purely quantitative models?
A.Quantitative revolution approach
B.Humanistic approach
C.Environmental determinism
D.Remote sensing approach
Explanation: The humanistic approach stresses subjective experience, place meaning, and human agency. It developed partly as a response to overly abstract quantitative modelling of human spatial behaviour.
3Welfare geography is mainly concerned with:
A.Only the mapping of mountain ranges
B.Spatial patterns of well-being, inequality, and access to resources
C.The chemical composition of soils
D.Measuring earthquake magnitude
Explanation: Welfare geography analyses how goods, services, health, income, and opportunities are distributed across space. It asks who gets what, where, and why, linking geography to social justice and development.
4The idea that human geography studies the ‘areal differentiation’ of the earth’s surface is most closely associated with emphasising:
A.Identical conditions everywhere on Earth
B.How regions differ in physical and human characteristics
C.Only political boundaries drawn on maps
D.Space travel and planetary exploration
Explanation: Areal differentiation means examining how places and regions differ from one another in both physical attributes and human organisation. It is a classic way of defining geography’s interest in spatial variety.
5Which statement best reflects a modern view of the nature–society relationship in human geography?
A.Nature completely determines all human behaviour with no human choice
B.Humans and environments interact; people both adapt to and modify nature
C.Society exists completely independent of physical environments
D.Only climate maps are needed to explain economic development
Explanation: Contemporary human geography rejects extreme environmental determinism and pure social independence. People adapt to environmental opportunities and constraints while also transforming landscapes through technology, culture, and economy.
6Arithmetic population density is calculated as:
A.Total population ÷ total land area
B.Total population ÷ net cultivated area
C.Agricultural population ÷ net cultivable area
D.Urban population ÷ rural population
Explanation: Arithmetic density is the simplest density measure: total population divided by total land area. It gives an average persons-per-unit-area figure but does not show how much land is actually usable for farming.
7Physiological density is generally higher than arithmetic density in a country when:
A.All land is completely unused
B.A large share of land is not cultivated, so people press on a smaller farmed area
C.There is no population at all
D.Area and population are equal numbers
Explanation: Physiological density uses net cultivated (or arable) area in the denominator. If much land is desert, mountain, or forest and not farmed, cultivated area is smaller than total area, so physiological density exceeds arithmetic density.
8A district has a population of 2,400,000 and an area of 8,000 km². Its arithmetic density is:
A.200 persons per km²
B.300 persons per km²
C.400 persons per km²
D.30 persons per km²
Explanation: Arithmetic density = 2,400,000 ÷ 8,000 = 300 persons per km². Always divide total population by total area and keep the unit as persons per km².
9Natural growth of population depends mainly on:
A.Only international migration
B.The balance of births and deaths
C.Only the number of cities
D.Only literacy rates
Explanation: Natural growth is the difference between births and deaths (often expressed using crude birth and death rates). Migration is an induced or mechanical component of total population change, not natural growth.
10In the demographic transition model, Stage 2 is typically characterised by:
A.High birth rate and high death rate with little growth
B.High birth rate and rapidly falling death rate with rapid growth
C.Low birth rate and low death rate with very slow growth
D.Negative growth due to very low births only
Explanation: Stage 2 (early expanding) keeps traditionally high birth rates while death rates fall because of better food, sanitation, and health. The widening gap produces rapid natural increase.
