Question #1: Which statement best describes the physical geography of Arabia and Iraq?

A. largely hot and dry with pockets of mountains and fertile river valleys
B. tropical, with equal parts rainforest and desert
C. mountainous, with diverse terrain and climate based on altitude
D. generally flat and moderate with seasonal variations in precipitation

According to what I have studied most of Arabia and Iraw is desert, but the hills and mountains of nothern and eastern Iraq are slightly moister because they get some rainfall.

So I think the answer is C

Question #2: Which set of descriptions would describe the largest number of people in the region?

A. rural, Sunni, and Kurd

B. urban, Sunni, and Arab

C. rural, Shia, and Kurd

D. urban, Shia, and Arab

From what I have studied except for Yemen, the countries of the region are heavily urbanized. So the correct answer is between B and D. Also the maority of the region's people are Sunnis. So the answer may be B.

I don't know if I'm right so I want to make sure.

Question #3: Which of the following has the greatest impact on human settlement in Iraq?

A. oil resources
B. mountainous terrain
C. coastal lands
D. fresh water sources

According to what I have studied is that water is very scarce is most of the region, and because of that people cluster where there is water for drinking and cleaning. As a result, the region's population has clustered for centuries in the places with the most water. These places include the mountains of Iraq and Yemen.

So with that information the answer may be D because fresh water sources attract more people in.
