I searched on the internet and it said that FANA is the old name. Now it is called Gilgit Baltistan.

Quite right!

2: Compare the advantages of road and rail transport?
3: Was it Alpine or Coniferous forest in the 1st picture?

2) The advantages of road transport is that heavy and bulky goods can easily be transported within short time. It is a door to door service. Can be transported to the markets while rail transport has cargo which stores goods like machinery etc and it can be transported to different cities. Nearby dry ports can also transport their goods that can be sent to the ports.

3) I didn't attempt that question but I think it is Alpine.

It does not look like the picture given, the picture had trees with dense leaves, even hanging down, a little above the ground.

Quite right!

Lol, yeh bhi may ne guess mara tha. XDD

What was forest A? Alpine or coniferous?
Also, what were we supposed to write for part b of that question, which asked why the forest appears to be in an area of afforestation?

A was coniferous.....

 

[Sparky123]

World Distinction is doing world top, i.e. getting highest marks in a particular subject in the whole world (in that exam), as far as I know.

 

[Sparky123]

A was coniferous.....

What is your justification for it?

 

[zainenayab]

What is your justification for it?

the pic given in insert was the great justification.....the trees with long trunks and sloping leaves.....dont think need any other justifications....

 

[zainenayab]

What is your justification for it?

what did u write?

 

[Sparky123]

I wrote Alpine due to the area defined on the map, i.e. on and below the snowline.

 

[zainenayab]

pic C was alpine....bcz its picture given in the insert showed the trees which were tall and so preventing the sunlight from reaching the ground....and thats y ground was shaded and the trees below big trees were smaller in size bcz they get less sunlight....what u wrote in C then?

 

[Sparky123]

what did u write?

Pic C was certainly not Alpine, the area was not mountainous and the area defined on map shows it was Rakh forest, refer to the latest Atlas too.

 

[Mohammad Farzanullah]

naaaa.
in geography they also test your general knowledge,the questions 2,3,4 were purely general knowledge apart from few parts

I wrote "FANA (Gilgit Baltistan)"

well i also wrote rakh or tropical but when i think later i came up believing it was alpine....but still confused whether it was alpine or rakh....

Anyways what is done is done, may Allah pass us with A*s and even World Distinction...Ameen.

Me too. FANA is the same as Gilgit Baltistan just like Silk Road is the same as Karakoram Highway. = D
