Question

Check all that apply.

New Zealand is composed of two islands.
France has several possessions in Oceania.
The largest cities in the region have no more than five million residents.
All of the cities in Australia and New Zealand are located on a coast.

Answer 1

New Zealand is made up of two main islands and several smaller ones. France has multiple possessions in Oceania, and the largest cities in the region, such as Auckland, have populations below five million. Not all cities in Australia and New Zealand are coastal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Regarding the question on the Pacific Islands region in Oceania, and specifically New Zealand and France's possessions:

• New Zealand is composed of two main islands, which are the North and South islands. It also includes a number of smaller nearby islands. Therefore, the statement that New Zealand is composed of two islands is partially true but doesn't include the smaller islands that form part of the country.
• France indeed has several possessions in Oceania, such as French Polynesia, New Caledonia, and Wallis and Futuna. Thus, the statement about France is correct.
• The largest cities in the region, like Auckland in New Zealand, have populations under five million. Auckland, being the primary city, has approximately 1.45 million residents. Therefore, the statement regarding city population sizes is correct.
• Not all of the cities in Australia and New Zealand are located on the coast. There are several inland cities as well, so this statement is incorrect.
