Question

Imagine that you're a geologist. This means that you study rocks, minerals, and the natural processes that happen

beneath the Earth's surface. You are sent to study this volcano in Hawaii. You'll have to learn about the volcano,
why it erupts, and when it erupts. You will also have to learn about how the volcano affects the people, plants, and
animals that live nearby. Which of the six essential elements of geography would you be using? Explain your answer
in at least three sentences.

Answer 1

As a geologist, the six essential elements of geography that I may use are:

1. The world in spatial terms.
2. Places and regions.
3. Physical systems.
4. Human systems.
5. Environment and society.
6. The uses of geography.

Step-by-step explanation:

When studying a volcano eruption and its effects on nearby life, I would use all six of the essential elements. I would have to take into account the distances between the volcano and villages, the habits of local communities, and how to use my knowledge in geography to avoid extended damage, thus taking into account all of the elements.
