CBA Review

1. CBA Review

2. 5 Themes of Geography • Unit One

3. Movement, Region, Human Environment Interaction, Location, and Place • MR. HELP

4. What is the difference between a formal and functional region? A formal region is a large region characterized by many activities….. A Functional region serves other regions, Example DFW

5. A perceptual region is the way a place is perceived to be. Example: People in the north think that everyone in the south rides horses. • It can also be a misconception about a region. Example: Some people think New Mexico is considered the South while others would consider it a part of the Southwest

6. EX: People were able to move to the coast because of the invention of air conditioning. • Human Environment Interaction!How do people adapt to their environment? • EX2: People live in certain areas (mountains, deserts) because they are able to ADAPT to their surroundings

7. Unit 2: Physical Geography • Weathering and Erosion • Weathering is when something changes like a rock breaking into smaller pieces • Erosion is when something gets depleted by water, wind, or glaciers. EX: Grand Canyon

8. What has the biggest influence on climate? • LACEMOPS….. • LATITUDE…How far north or south you are from the equator dictates the temperature. Latitude has the biggest influence on climate. High latitude=cold, Low latitude=warm

9. Know climate graphs • Temperature and seasons are opposite on different hemispheres. • Biomes are determined by climate types

10. Unit 3: Human Geography • Religions with more than one God are called______________ • Religions with one God are called__________

11. Monotheistic Religions Christianity Islam (Muslims) 5 Pillars Judaism (Jews) Think Israel Polytheistic Hinduism (Caste System) Buddhism (Eightfold Path, Nirvana)

12. Culture When one culture influences another its called diffusion When two cultures combine to create something new its called convergence When one culture refuses to let another culture influence it (North Korea, Iran) its called divergence

13. Unit 4: Population and Migration • Reasons for migration are called Push/Pull factors EX: Industrialization created jobs, causing population booms-push factors EX: Problems and fighting over religion (middle east)-pull factors

14. Overpopulation • Developing countries will have a high or low birth rate? Africa will become overpopulated due to a high birthrate. • Developed countries will have a low birth rate, high GDP, low death rate, low infant mortality, and a high life expectancy • EX: Wealthy countries (United States, Japan, Western Europe) will have low birth rates

15. Unit 5: Environment and Resource use • Countries that have many resources will be wealthier. • Overconsumption (America uses too much oil and gas) will lead to resource depletion • Policies have to be put into place so these resources won’t run out EX: China’s One Child Policy ensures that over population won’t eat up all resources

16. Cooperation The world must COOPERATE with each other in order for everyone to have their needs met. (Water, Food, Medicine) Nations are dependent on a few countries controlling the whole world’s oil supply!!!! OPEC!!!! Not a good thing 

17. Water • People and cities want to located near water! Its easier to ship exports out into another country if it can come directly in a port. Also, temperatures are easier to adjust to near water. (Deserts are no fun, LA is the place to be) Railroads also made it easy for cities and industrialization to boom

18. Unit 6: Political Geography • Democracy-People are priority. Government serves the people. (People vote on leaders) • Totalitarian (Dictator)-One single (or small group) person decides everyone’s fate. Rules by fear! • Monarchy-King and Queen • Theocracy-Government in which religious laws have to be followed by the people. • Communism-People have no rights! Rulers decide EVERYTHING like religion, internet, newspapers. You only know what the government wants you to know.

19. Nationalism –An extreme pride in one’s country. To the point where you think you deserve things other countries don’t (Own currency, language) • Patriotism-A pride in one’s country, willing to do anything for it. • Colonialism-Countries setting up camp in other countries so they can exploit them for resources and expand their land. EX: Europe hurt Africa by moving in and taking over what they could. EX2: The New World, settling in the America’s EX3: Colonialism in Latin America and Africa created class systems and ethnic diversity.

20. Unit 7 Economics • Free Market Economy-Consumer dictates supply and demand. Profit is the main motivation. • Command Economy- (North Korea, Former Soviet Union, Cuba) Government decides what is produced. Supply and Demand doesn’t exist. Wants cooperation, not competition • MIXED ECONOMY-The government plays a part in what is produces AS WELL as the business owners • Socialism-Government controls big business while encouraging small entrepeneurship. Provides national services to bring an end to poverty..

21. Agriculture and Industry • Subsistence Farming-Farming enough to take care of one’s self. • Commercial Farming-Cash crops and farming for profit • Cottage Industry-Only small scale stores, no big industry • Commercial Industries-Big industrialization, big factories, major production.

22. Economic Activities • Primary-Direct Use of Natural Resources (fishing, farming, mining) • Secondary-Manufacturing and putting out those resources. (factory workers, assembly lines) • Tertiary-Providing any kind of service (Waiter, actor, doctor, lawyer) • Quaternary-The use of data or management (CEO’s of companies, scientists, data analyst)
