Use the map below to help you understand the concept of Spatial Diffusion.
SPATIAL DIFFUSION IS: Explain how the map shows Spatial Diffusion. What landform has helped spatial diffusion?
Was the landform that caused the human migration an aid (help diffusion) or a barrier (stop diffusion)? List at least three examples for both sides of
the T chart.
Use the map below to help you understand important geographic trends.
Label the following lines: Equator Prime Meridian Tropic of Cancer Tropic of Capricorn
Which line separates the Northern and Southern Hemisphere? Which line separates the Western and Eastern Hemisphere? Which type of lines is coherent with type of climate found on the Earth? (Think about where it is tropical and hot on the Earth vs. polar and cold) What is the trend of the climate as you move away from the line in the previous answer? LOCATION: RELATIVE LOCATION IS THE ___________________________ OF A PLACE ___________________ TO ANOTHER PLACE. ABSOLUTE LOCATION IS _______________________________________________________ AND USES ________________ & ______________________________ COORDINATES TO SHOW THE PLACE’S __________________ LOCATION. HUMAN ENVIRONMENT INTERACTION: Circle if the statement represents how humans DEPEND, ADAPT, OR MODIFY the environment. “Many Japanese farmers use terrace farming along mountain slopes to naturally water their crops.” DEPEND ADAPT MODIFY “A farmer rotates his crops on his land to allow the land to rebuild its soil. Rotation of crops brings more food for farmers to sell.” DEPEND ADAPT MODIFY “With the Texas drought this summer, many government policies have banned people from having BBQ and using fireworks.” DEPEND ADAPT MODIFY

TRUE OR FALSE: For each statement, decide if it is TRUE o FALSE. If the statement is false, write a correct statement to
RUE / FALSE Human activity can only affect the Earth in positive way.
RUE/ FALSE The Columbian Exchange (trading between the Atlantic Ocean between the Old World and the New World) is
RUE/ FALSE Facebook and other social networks is not considered an example of spatial diffusion.
EGION: Determine which type of region the following regions are:
