Ok. The book I used for years in my classes stated that a skilled workforce was Israel's greatest resource.

Israel produces very little food, but does have a strong manufacturing and engineering economic base.

hmm ok thanks

To determine the correct answer to this question, we need to understand the geographical features that separate the Indian subcontinent from the rest of Asia. The Indian subcontinent is a large landmass located south of the Himalayas and bordered by the Arabian Sea on the west and the Bay of Bengal on the east.

a. Himalayas: This mountain range is located to the north of the Indian subcontinent and acts as a physical barrier, separating it from the rest of Asia. Therefore, it seems like a potential answer.

b. Ganges River: The Ganges is a major river in the Indian subcontinent, but it does not act as a separation between the Indian subcontinent and the rest of Asia. So, this option is not correct.

c. Deccan Plateau: The Deccan Plateau is a large elevated region in southern India, but it does not separate the Indian subcontinent from the rest of Asia. Therefore, this option is also not correct.

d. Eastern Ghats: The Eastern Ghats is a mountain range in eastern India, but it is not a significant barrier separating the Indian subcontinent from the rest of Asia. Hence, this option is also not correct.

Considering the above analysis, the correct answer to the question is a. Himalayas.
