Explanation:
We are given a list of 10 locations (1–10) and a diagram of Earth divided into 10 labeled boxes (A–J). Our job is to match each location number to the correct box letter based on geography.
Let’s go step by step using basic world geography:
1.
Atlantic Ocean — This is the ocean between the Americas (west) and Europe/Africa (east). On a standard world map, it’s in the middle-left area. In the diagram,
Box A is the large area west of Africa and east of the Americas → that’s the Atlantic Ocean. So:
1 → A
2.
Northern Hemisphere — Everything north of the Equator. The top half of the globe. In the diagram,
Box B is the topmost rectangular region (above the equator line) → that’s the Northern Hemisphere.
2 → B
3.
North Pole — The very top point of Earth, inside the Arctic Ocean. In the diagram,
Box C is the small circle at the top center (inside Box B) → that’s the North Pole.
3 → C
4.
Equator — The imaginary line at 0° latitude, dividing Earth into Northern and Southern Hemispheres. In the diagram,
Box D is the horizontal line across the middle → that’s the Equator.
4 → D
5.
Southern Hemisphere — Everything south of the Equator. Bottom half of the globe. In the diagram,
Box E is the bottom rectangular region (below the equator) → that’s the Southern Hemisphere.
5 → E
6.
South Pole — The very bottom point, inside Antarctica. In the diagram,
Box F is the small circle at the bottom center (inside Box E) → that’s the South Pole.
6 → F
7.
Pacific Ocean — The largest ocean, west of the Americas and east of Asia/Australia. In the diagram,
Box G is the huge area on the left side (from top to bottom, west of the Americas) → that’s the Pacific Ocean.
7 → G
8.
Africa — Continent mostly straddling the Equator, east of the Atlantic, west of the Indian Ocean. In the diagram,
Box H is the continent-shaped area in the middle-right, centered on the equator → that’s Africa.
8 → H
9.
Americas — North and South America together, on the western side of the Atlantic. In the diagram,
Box I is the long vertical landmass on the far left (west of the Atlantic), spanning both hemispheres. That’s the Americas.
9 → I
10.
North America — The northern part of the Americas, above the equator. In the diagram,
Box J is the upper part of Box I (the top portion of the Americas landmass) → that’s North America.
10 → J
Let’s double-check:
- A = Atlantic Ocean
✔
- B = Northern Hemisphere
✔
- C = North Pole
✔
- D = Equator
✔
- E = Southern Hemisphere
✔
- F = South Pole
✔
- G = Pacific Ocean
✔
- H = Africa
✔
- I = Americas
✔
- J = North America
✔
All match standard world map layout.
Final Answer:
1–A, 2–B, 3–C, 4–D, 5–E, 6–F, 7–G, 8–H, 9–I, 10–J
