Explanation:

Identify the labeled locations on the map

• A points to the landlocked body of water in southwestern Russia/Central Asia: Caspian Sea.
• B points to the vast region of northern Asia stretching from the Urals to the Pacific: Siberia.
• C points to the major city located on the Baltic Sea coast (Gulf of Finland): St. Petersburg.
• D points to the ocean body bordering the eastern coast of Russia: Pacific Ocean.

Matching these to the numbered options:

• Caspian Sea: 1. A
• Pacific Ocean: 4. D
• Siberia: 2. B
• Moscow: 5. E
• St. Petersburg: 3. C

Evaluate the statement in Question 40

• The mountains spanning Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Albania, and Montenegro are the Dinaric Alps (or Dinarides), not the Carpathian Mountains.
• The Carpathian Mountains form an arc through Central and Eastern Europe (mainly Romania, Ukraine, Poland, Slovakia).
• Therefore, the statement is False.
