8 multiple choice 2 points
an environment that best supported a traditional society in sub-saharan africa was a
tropical rain forest
mountain chain
costal plain
savanna upland

Explanation:

• Question 6: Geography influences culture. The Nile River valley's geography (fertile land due to river flooding) supports agriculture, which is a cultural occupation. The other options (prayer times, dietary restrictions, political parties) are not as directly tied to geography.
• Question 7: In a flexible exchange rate system, the international value of a currency is determined by supply and demand in the foreign - exchange market. Educational achievements, technology quality, and industry strength may have indirect or long - term effects but are not the primary determinants in the short - term foreign - exchange market.
• Question 8: The savanna upland in Sub - Saharan Africa had a more stable environment for traditional societies. Tropical rainforests could be dense and difficult for large - scale traditional settlement in some areas. Mountain chains might have limited resources for large populations, and coastal plains could be more prone to external influences (like sea - borne invasions or different trade - related cultural changes) compared to the more internally focused savanna upland traditional societies.

Answer:

1. Agriculture is a common occupation in the Nile River valley.
2. The supply of and demand for the country’s currency.
3. savanna upland
