Question

Draw neat, labelled diagrams (Any Two):
(1) Linear settlement.
(2) Skills of Geographers (any five).
(3) Provision of infrastructure and stimulus to minimize regional imbalance.

Hint:

Diagrams in geography should be simple, with clear labels to represent spatial patterns or processes effectively.

Answer 1

(1) Linear settlement:
Linear settlements develop along linear features like roads, rivers, or canals, forming a straight or slightly curved pattern.

(2) Skills of Geographers (any five): 
Geographers use diverse skills for spatial analysis and problem-solving. 

(3) Provision of infrastructure and stimulus to minimize regional imbalance: 
Infrastructure (roads, electricity) and stimuli (subsidies, industries) reduce disparities between regions.
