Wait, is it B? Cause it either B or C but C is out of the question.....get it???????( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Sorry...But I got it right this time, right?
Yes, I think it's B. But be sure to check your text.
Sub-Saharan means "south of the Sahara." Clearly, Sudan is not south of that desert.
Thanks!
You're welcome.
To determine the correct answer, let's analyze each option.
A. Is politically distinct from other regional countries.
This option suggests that Sudan is excluded from the sub-Saharan region because it is politically different from other countries in the region. However, political differences are not typically the primary reason for excluding a country from a specific geographical region.
B. Is linked to Egypt by the Nile.
This option implies that Sudan is excluded from the sub-Saharan region because it shares an important geographical feature, the Nile, with Egypt. However, while the Nile connects Sudan and Egypt, this is not typically the reason for excluding Sudan from the sub-Saharan region.
C. Doesn't border the Sahara Desert.
This option suggests that Sudan is omitted from the sub-Saharan region because it does not share a border with the Sahara Desert. The Sahara Desert is often considered the defining geographical feature of the sub-Saharan region, so countries that do not border it may be excluded from this category.
D. Contains most of the evidence of humanity's African origins.
This option implies that Sudan is excluded from the sub-Saharan region because it contains the majority of evidence related to humanity's African origins. However, while Sudan does have archaeological sites with important historical significance, this is not typically the reason for excluding it from the sub-Saharan region.
Based on the provided options, option C, "Doesn't border the Sahara Desert," is the most likely correct answer. The Sahara Desert is considered the primary criterion for defining the sub-Saharan region, and countries that do not border it are often excluded from this category.
So, the correct answer would be:
C. Doesn't border the Sahara Desert.
