distance of primary road from
Arochuchwu to the northern edge of
the map is 50km (1c)
slope/gradient between obiene aid
and the church at obieze= gradient =
increment in y along y-axis/increment
in x along y-
axis =13cm/25cm =0.25 (1d)
land transportaion: this is the due to
lack of sea transportation and
prevalence of secondary and minor
roads. it is easiest and cheapest
means of transportation 1(b) Map distance=32cm Map sclae
=1:50,000 the actual
distance=32x1/2=16km (c) Gradient=vertical interval/
horizontal distance Gradient=
(500-200)m/9cm =300m/ (9x.05)km
=600m/9km =600m/(9x1000)m
=1/15 then gradient=1:15 (d) The transport network system on
the map is mainly roads and footh
path with
little of water transpot. the central part of the Map forms a
nodal town. The roads are affected by hills . 3a Igneous rock are formed by the
cooling and solidification of molten
rocks called magma ejected from the
earth crust. -they are crystalline in structure.
-they are non-stratified rocks.
-they are usually very hard and
impervious
-they do not contain fossils. WHILE Sedimentary rocks are formed
by sediments deposited either by
water,wind or by ice. -they occur in layers -they are coarse
in texture
-they are soft
-they are not resistant to erosion (5a)
(i) -climatic factors:high temperature
with low rainfall leads to sparse
vegetation
-the higher, the rainfall, the denser the
vegetation -high temperature and high rainfall
leads to luxuriant vegetation -when temperature is low, no plant
grows
-sunshine provides energy for
photosynthesis needed for luxuriant
growth (5aii)geomorphic factors: -rainfall on
sleep slopes leads to run offf, leading
to low vegetation
-the sleeper the slope, the lesser the
vegetation
-eroded top soil in slopy area does not support vegetation
-in higher latitudes aspect plays an
important role on available energy
and vegetation distribution (5b) -the fruit is evergreen and could
be up to 60m height withg broad
leaves
-there are various interlocking
branches having layers of trees i.e
lower middle and upper storey canopies 6.a plateau is elevated upland and
extensive flat or level surface which
usually descends sharply is the
surrounding lowland. 6b mode of formation of tectonic
plateau: it is a plateau which is formed as a
result of earth movement which
causes the uplift of some areas and
the depression of
others uplift areas of level or
undulating land form tectonic plteau and the depressed area form basins. 6ci it source of valuable minerals such
as tin gold. ii.it encourages settlement of people. Keep Refreshing.... Use this Please..

(i)majority of the industries are
operating on small scale bases. i.e
small scale enterprises.
(ii)they can only be located in urban centres.
(iii)they are dependent on imported
raw materials from other countries.
(iv)they depend on technical
expertise from other countries.
(v)large concentration on consumable goods.
(vi)products are essentially made for
local markets.
======================== (4a)Nigeria is a sub-saharan nation
located in west Africa. It is located
between latitudes 4degree N and
14digre N of the
equator and between longitudes
3digre E and 15digree of the greenwich meridian (4aii) Nigeria is the fourth largest
country in Africa after Niger,Mali and
Mauritania. It has an area of about
923,000sgkm (4b)
(i) Source of minerals: most highlands
in Nigeria are source
of minerals like coal(enugu) tin and
columbite (jos plateau) ,gold,diamond
and limestone. (ii) For defence: highland are
useful in time of inter-tribal wars
for easy defence against enemies.
(iii)As a sources of rivers: most
highland in Nigeria serve as
watershed or sources of many rivers and streams.
(iv)As tourist centres: some highland
in Nigeria serve as
centre for tourist attraction e.g jos
plateau
(v)some highlands has cool climate which aids settlement of
people.
