AP Human Geography Test

During this unit of human geography, I have learned so much about religions, ethnicities, and even culture. For example, I learned about the religion Islam and how it is a religion of peace just like the Hindu religion and as well as the Buddhist religion and much more others. These religions and some others have much in common whether they accept it , these religions and some more are all peaceful religions and all teach good morals and principles to the followers, everyone following footsteps of good people and their good actions and/or deeds. When I was reading chapter 7 ( ethnicity) I learned that ethnicity also has to do with culture and that the chapter before that one, we were reading about ( folk culture) and how it much ties in with

1. West – It is to the west that the sun sets at the end of the day. This fact connects the element of water to the west, since with the setting of the sun darkness approaches and with it coolness, which are aspects of this element. In addition, it is after a hectic day that we wind down and experience a measure of peace and calm. Since the element of water is also associated with calmness it is appropriate to link it with the west and the setting sun.

For my theme, I chose the word change because I feel that throughout this chapter, each civilization has gone through changes as time went on. Western Asia went through changes when it was split into Babylonia and Assyria. The two zones became different and accomplished things on their own after. But in the Mediterranean, after many people settles and migrated from many place of the world, the Mediterranean became more successful because of its goods and success in trading. Also in Israel, when the Bible became more popular and there were more followers of Yahweh, many customs were changed. For example, monotheism was one of the changes the Israelites went through, because before, polytheism, the worship of more than one god, was more popular and well-known.

This semester I learned that there are four different branches of human geography. First to define the different geographies: social, has to do with society and what that regions society values. An example of this would be school systems. Cultural geographies has to do with symbolic practices and shared sets of meaning, a simple example of this could be in Italy, most people are Roman Catholic, and share those values. Political, is the type of government that county has, for example North Korea is communist. Lastly, economic, is that countries economy, for example Greece, currently is in an economic crisis.

Thus man was created first and then vegetation followed. Second, "Cains Wife", the issue presents if Cain and Abel murdered one

The world is very unequal because Geographic location affects what crops a civilization can grow and how they develop because a civilization can grow a variety of crops on different continents which rely on the weather and the climate which depends upon where the civilization is located. In the middle east is where civilizations grew wheat and wheat is high in protein and last a very long time as long as it is dry. Unlike sago is what they grew in papua new guinea, the sago is low in protein and only last three to four days. This is what affects the health and well being of the people which benefits the civilizations only if they have healthy food. The geography affects the agriculture which makes a civilization’s ability to produce agriculture

I think I would be an excellent candidate for Advanced Placement Geography because I hand my work in on time and at high quality. My reading scores are at an 11th grade level. Essays are checked multiple times before being handed in. When a project is assigned I don't procrastinate working on it. If I earn a lower grade or am confused on a topic I ask for help and make sure not to make the same mistake again. I put school work ahead of social activities and sports. During a teacher's lecture I listen diligently and focus my attention on the task at hand. When the teacher is giving instructions I listen to them. I am always prepared with the materials I need for class each and every day. I participate in class activities and discussions.
