Question

what impact would chad’s location have on its overall ability to exchange goods?
chad has access to water routes, allowing for easier trade with countries outside of africa
chad is self - sufficient and therefore does not need to trade with any other countries at all
chad only uses roads to transport goods because they only trade with the yellow - shaded countries
chad is landlocked and would have difficulty trading with countries outside of central africa

Explanation:

Chad is a landlocked country (no direct access to oceans/seas). Landlocked countries face challenges in international trade as water routes (like ports) are key for efficient, low - cost trade. The first option is wrong as Chad doesn't have easy water - route access. The second is wrong because no country is fully self - sufficient in all goods. The third is wrong as there's no indication it only trades with yellow - shaded countries. The fourth option correctly states that being landlocked makes trading with non - Central African countries difficult due to lack of direct water access and reliance on neighboring countries' infrastructure for trade routes.

Answer:

Chad is landlocked and would have difficulty trading with countries outside of Central Africa
