5 Themes Assignment

Part A: 

Movement- This picture shows movement because trains throughout our history have transported food and other supplies across countries and have brought countries together by taking people from one side to the other.

Location- The Eiffel Tower is shown in this picture, its absolute location is 48.8582 N and 2.2945 E. The relative location is that it is located on the Champ de Mars in Paris and near a river.

Place- In this picture is an iceberg, there would be icebergs no matter what making it a physical place, but with humans causing pollution and global warming they're melting and disappearing. 

Part B: New Zealand

                  Absolute- Wellington, New Zealand's capital is at 41.2889 S and 174.7772 E.

                  Physical- The many lakes, Mount Tarawera and Fox Glacier.

         Movement- Planes, cars and trains to transport goods and people in New Zealand. Computers and phones to help people communicate. Boats and water all around the country and its many islands also transport goods and people around the country.

         Human and Environment Interaction:

                   Adapt- People have adapted to the lush jungle islands and warm climates by living close to water and dressing warmer most of the time.

                   Depend- They depend on the tons of water resources throughout and around the islands and on all the animals and plants on the islands and in the water for food and the water for transportation from island to island.
