1-The great barrier reef is located in Australia

2-Troposphere atmospheric layer is closest to the Earth

3-Andes is the longest continuous mountain range in the world

4-The mass of water vapour per unit volume in air is known as Absolute humidity

5-Ionosphere layer of atmosphere is responsible for deflection of radio waves

6-Daily weather map showing isobars is an example of Isopleths map

7-Equatorial low pressure belt  region of the earth surface is called doldrums

8-Carbon Dioxide gas contributes the maximum to greenhouse effect

9-Rotation of the Earth causes the wind to be deflected towards the left in southern hemisphere

10-Lake victoria forms the international boundary between two countries Tanzania and Uganda

12-Ural mountain ranges separate Europe from Asia

13-The degree of hardness of minerals is indicated by Mons Scale

14-Pressure cooker is preferred for cooking at high altitudes because Boiling point of water reduces due to low atmospheric pressure
