   - The foreground objects look larger than the middle and background objects  

   - The horizon is clearly seen

b) Suggest any five social-economic activities that might be taking place in the area shown on the photograph        

1. Fishing, this is evidenced by the presence of water body (sea) in left side of photograph

d) Describe the relief of the area  

    Relief is physical appearance of an area or land, the relief of an area is:  

    - Lowland coastal region because the area lies towards the sea

MOCK 2015  

Carefully, study the photograph provided below and then answers the questions that follow:

a) What type of photograph is this? 

    Ground or Horizontal Photograph due to the following reasons:

    - The foreground objects look larger than the middle and background objects 

    - The horizon is easily seen from the background of the object

b) Name the vegetation shown in the photograph

    Cactus         

c) Name the type of climate (natural region) in which the vegetation dominates 
    Hot Desert Climate

d) Name three places in Africa where the vegetation can be found                      

    Sudan, Namibia and Egypt

MOCK 2014   
Study carefully the photograph provided below and then answers the questions that follow: 

a) Name the type of photograph by giving two reasons

    High Oblique Photograph due to the following reasons: 

    - It shows both top and side views of features like the buildings  

    - Its scale reduce progressively from the foreground to the background   

    - It shows the horizon at the background of the photograph       

                             

b) With evidence, suggest any four economic activities that might be taking place in the area 

1. Fishing, this is evidenced by the presence of water body (ocean) at the central part of photograph   
2. Trade, the area is town where trading activities is common 

3. Transportation, this is proved by the presence of ships and boats on the water body

4. Manufacturing, this is also proved by the presence of industries at the left background of photograph, likewise this ia a common activity urban areas                                                 

c) In three points, describe the importance of vegetation shown in the area

   - Providing oxygen gas to the human beings and absorb the carbon dioxide gas

MOCK 2013                                                                                        

Study carefully the photograph provided below and then answer the questions that follow:

2. Agriculture, some lava on weathering can lead to fertile soil hence development of agriculture 

3. Mining, volcanism can lead to formation  of mineral deposits like copper and diamond 

4. Electric Generation, volcanic eruption can provide geothermal power, then get electricity

c) Describe the four destructive influences of the process on man and environment 

 1. Loss of Life, eruption of hot molten materials can kill people and animals  

 2. Damage of Properties, volcanic eruption can damage the houses and crops  

 3. Air Pollution, the eruption of gases into the area can cause air pollution 

 4. Loss of Biodiversity, ejection of hot molten materials can destroy vegetation and kill animals
