Geography Homework Practice
| # | Answer |
|---|---|
| 1 | Geography is the study of places, land, people, and how they live in different areas. |
| 2 | Hot weather can cause dehydration, tiredness, or heat exhaustion if a person does not drink enough water and rest. |
| 3 | It is important because clean water helps people stay healthy, drink safely, and prevent the spread of disease. |
| 4 | Mountains can make travel harder, so it may be more difficult to get food, medicine, or medical help. |
| 5 | Living near the ocean can help by providing food and jobs, but it can also bring storms, flooding, and salty water that may affect safety and health. |
| 6 | People might face dehydration because there is little water and the hot, dry air can make them lose water faster. |
| 7 | They need special clothing and shelter to stay warm and prevent illnesses or injuries caused by cold weather, such as frostbite or hypothermia. |
| 8 | Geography affects climate, soil, and water, which change what plants can grow and what animals can live there, so people eat different foods in different places. |
| 9 | A health or safety risk is that floodwater can damage homes or spread germs. The family can prepare by moving important items to higher ground and making an emergency plan. |
| 10 | Geography and health are connected because a place's climate, water, and land can affect daily life. For example, people in hot places need more water to avoid dehydration, and people in areas with floods may need to protect themselves from dirty water and injuries. |
