Integrate case study evidence, as well as geographic terminology and concepts, into your answer.
Geographic concepts you may choose to use in your answer include:
Environments
May be natural and / or cultural. They have particular characteristics and features, which can be the result of natural and / or cultural processes.
Location
Where something is found. Location can be an advantage or a constraint. Location can be described in absolute or relative terms.
Perspectives
Ways of seeing the world that help explain differences in decisions about, responses to, and interactions with environments. Perspectives are bodies of thought, theories, or worldviews that shape people's values and have built up over time.
Change
Involves any alteration to the natural or cultural environment. Change can be spatial and / or temporal. Change is a normal process in both natural and cultural environments. It occurs at varying rates, at different times, and in different places.
Interaction
Involves elements of an environment affecting each other and being linked together. Interaction incorporates movement, flows, connections, links, and interrelationships, which work together and may be one- or two-way interactions. Landscapes are the visible outcome of interactions. Interaction can bring about environmental change.
