Question 16 • OH-World Geography CR (semester)

Which of the following statements does not describe the uses of geography?

Answer
A
It helps people understand the ways humans have adapted to and modified their environment.
B
It helps people interpret historical events and understand how societies have changed over time.
C
It helps people identify the physical processes that shape the Earth's surface.
D
It helps people organize the world spatially.

Explanation

Geography studies places, the physical processes that shape Earth, and how people interact with and organize space. It can provide context for historical events, but interpreting events and tracing how societies change over time is primarily the work of history. Therefore, the statement about understanding historical events and societal change does not best describe a use of geography.
