Arrange the following major African lakes in correct geographical sequence from North to South:

  1. 1Lake Nasser
  2. 2Lake Victoria
  3. 3Lake Tanganyika
  4. 4Lake Malawi (Lake Nyasa)

Cevap

The correct North-to-South sequence is Lake Nasser, followed by Lake Victoria, Lake Tanganyika, and Lake Malawi (Lake Nyasa).
The correct North-to-South arrangement places Lake Nasser furthest north in Egypt/Sudan (~22° N), followed by Lake Victoria straddling the Equator (~1° S), then Lake Tanganyika in central-east Africa (~6° S), and finally Lake Malawi in southern East Africa (~12° S).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the approximate latitudinal positions of each African lake.
Lake Nasser is situated in the north (22° N), Lake Victoria lies straddling the Equator (1° S), Lake Tanganyika lies in the central rift valley (6° S), and Lake Malawi is situated further south (12° S).
Establishing absolute or relative latitudinal locations allows systematic ordering from North to South.
2
Sequence the lakes from highest northern latitude to lowest southern latitude.
Lake Nasser (22° N) → Lake Victoria (1° S) → Lake Tanganyika (6° S) → Lake Malawi (12° S).
This places the water bodies sequentially moving from North to South across Africa.
