<p>Hypothetically, if there was a question about megalopolises what would the 3 largest be?</p>
<p>Lauren 926, I also said Berlin Wall, Korea buffer zone, and US/Mexico border!</p>
<p>For my barriers I put: Berlin Wall; 38th parallel north between North and South Korea; Line of Control between India and Pakistan and the US Mexico border to prevent illegal immigration. </p>
<p>Also, I put coal since that made the most sense to me. If it was CO2, then many LDCs would have major colored areas too since we emit CO2 all the time.</p>
<p>I was also stuck between CO2 and coal, but I said CO2. The darkest areas were Japan and Western Europe, which probably could go either way, but the darkness of India, Nigeria etc. (densely populated countries, but I’m not sure how much coal they use) led me to say CO2. I could be totally wrong though.</p>
<p>Also, what was the answer to the other map one?</p>
<p>The one with the options that included pizza parlors and ice cream factories?</p>
<p>If so, I put steel mills.</p>
<p>Shaq395, great minds think alike! It took me forever to come up with the Mexican border but once I did it seemed so obvious lol. And for the other map I put steel mills but was really unsure. Took an educated guess. What was the answer to the question about the main crop in Western Africa? And where did the Indo-European family of languages originate?</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure its steel mills considering that there are hundreds of thousands of pizza parlors in the USA and a couple thousand ice cream factories. I think you have to look at it from the type of object being created. More people eat ice cream per day than buy steel so I think it’s steel (I know really weird reasoning).</p>
<p>The main crop in West Africa was Yams. And the Indo European langs originated in Turkey.</p>
<p>Oh good! I thought that yams were sort of out there but I had a feeling that was right. What were the options besides Turkey? I’m pretty sure I but that but I think I had it narrowed down to two.</p>
<p>I put coal, because of how not all of the US was shaded and we are a disproportionally larger CO2 emitter than the rest of the world. </p>
<p>How many points will they deduct me for not including the slash and burn part of shifting ag? I just wrote the part about them moving locations every 2-3 years :(</p>
<p>@soccerchic12- Well they never deduct points. They only give points. So I think you should be fine if you did everything else correctly. Don’t worry 'bout it! You’re fine! :D</p>
<p>@congablicoti- Well I knew yams from Chinua Achebe’s book : Things Fall Apart. LOL XD
And I don’t remember the other options :(</p>
<p>Is that one the question with the US map and dots on the majority of the east side? If so I put the pizza parlor franchise.</p>
<p>Also which question was the CO2 and Coal? MP or FRQ? I don’t recall having that! D:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I put the same thing although I believe they won’t prevent you from getting that point. Shifting Cultivation has many methods, just slash-and-burn is the most common. If you wrote they move crops after depleting nutrients in that area I’m sure you are fine.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>A. Yams
B. Maize
C. Wheat
D. Rice
E. Dates</p>
<p>Thanks, moose97…freshman newbie here! Haha. Hoping for a four…I counted 3 questions I had absolutely no idea on, 10 or so that I took an educated guess and the rest I felt pretty confident on. We’ll see what my score looks like in July:) </p>
<p>What was a social/political consequence of the wall/barrier?</p>
<p>I put steel mill for US Map one…there are pizza parlors like everywhere in the US…</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Trying to remember is that the one where the dots were on the right side of the US?</p>
<p>@Soccerchic- LOL I’m a freshman too! We’re in the same boat XD For social/political I put that it tends to stabilize countries and that it creates a sense of peace between 2 countries that generally conflict. I also put that walls divide cultures and talked about how in the US Mexico border area, the Hispanic culture extends a few hundred miles into the US, but the barrier does not conform to that.</p>
<p>Oops I meant the options for the origins of Indo-European language. </p>
<p>Social/political consequence - I said increase in xenophobia & nativism that could heighten tension within the borders. (I used the US-Mexico wall as an example.)</p>
<p>Oh.
Turkey
Iran
Italy?
I can’t remember the others</p>
<p>Pakistan I think was one of the answers
I put turkey, but I honestly had no clue haha</p>
<p>it was turkey I’m certain</p>
