What did u write? I wrote alpine

 

[Sparky123]

What did u write? I wrote alpine

Same here, since the area indicated was touching the extreme north of Pakistan and this area is of a high altitude, and as far as I think, Confierous plantations are near Quetta and in the north below the Pak-Afghan boundary.

Yup, for the same reason I wrote alpine. Coniferous are in 1000-4000 m.

What was photography C?

 

[Sparky123]

What was photography C?

It was surely Tropical Thorn Forest (Rakh).

 

[Haris Bin Zahid]

It was surely Tropical Thorn Forest (Rakh).

Well no it isn't!

 

[Sparky123]

Well no it isn't!

Check the Atlas

 

[xSabax]

Karakoram highway is also correct, no doubt about that!Many times in past papers.
Silk road is the old name.

You sure? I only guessed it and wrote Karakoram highway

 

[Haris Bin Zahid]

You sure? I only guessed it and wrote Karakoram highway

Dead sure.

 

[Haris Bin Zahid]

Check the Atlas

But according to huma naz sethi book, tropical thorn are dominated by thorny hardwood.

 

[xSabax]

Dead sure.

And what about the province? I wrote FANA instead of Gilgit Baltistan. Is it right?

 

[Sparky123]

I wrote this according to the area shown.

 

[Haris Bin Zahid]

I wrote this according to the area shown.

But it could be irrigated plantation also, isn't it?

 

[Sparky123]

That is along River Indus, in Sindh.

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

Many in punjab also, check out on internet-you'll find similar pictures for irrigated forests in pakistan....cuz tropical thorn is quite dry whereas in the picture, it was quite dense vegetation!

Check this out, a picture of Changa Manga, an irrigated plantation. Our one was a very similar pic to this:

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