Gce Model Questions Vol1 2021 Geography Question 42

Three regions (A, B and C) have the following climatic and soil data:\n\n- Region A: annual rainfall \(1800\ \text{mm}\), mean annual temperature \(24\ ^\circ\text{C}\), soil pH \(5.8\).\n- Region B: annual rainfall \(900\ \text{mm}\), mean annual temperature \(27\ ^\circ\text{C}\), soil pH \(5.2\).\n- Region C: annual rainfall \(1300\ \text{mm}\), mean annual temperature \(16\ ^\circ\text{C}\), soil pH \(6.4\).\n\nThe following criteria are used to assign the dominant natural vegetation type:\n\n* Tropical rainforest - rainfall > 1500 mm, temperature 18-30 °C, soil pH 5.5-7.0.\n* Savanna - rainfall 500-1500 mm, temperature > 20 °C, soil pH 4.5-6.5.\n* Deciduous forest - rainfall 1000-2000 mm, temperature 10-20 °C, soil pH 5.0-7.5.\n\nFor each region, determine which vegetation type is most appropriate.
