Explanation:

• Location: It refers to the particular place or position of a space, which can be absolute (e.g., using coordinates like latitude and longitude) or relative (e.g., near a river, next to a building).
• Place: Focuses on what a space is like, including its physical features (what it looks like) and its context (what is around it).
• Region: Comprises a group of places that share similar physical (e.g., climate, landforms) and human (e.g., culture, economic activities) characteristics.
• Human - environment interaction: Deals with how people and their physical surroundings affect each other. For example, how humans adapt to a desert environment (by building water - conserving structures) and how their activities (like over - grazing) can change the desert landscape.
