Question

antarctica is the worlds only continent that does not have permanent human settlements.

the antarctic treaty was signed to promote international cooperation.

antarctica is so cold that it cannot support life.

the ocean surrounding antarctica is the pacific ocean.

researchers study antarctic glaciers to see how the earths climate has changed over time.

Explanation:

Analyze the prompt requirements

The task asks to select only the sentences that accurately describe Antarctica and how people adapt to live in this region. This is a multi-select multiple-choice question.

Evaluate the first sentence

"Antarctica is the world's only continent that does not have permanent human settlements."

• This is geographically accurate. While researchers live there temporarily, there are no permanent native populations or permanent settlements.
• This relates directly to Antarctic Climate and human adaptation.

Evaluate the second sentence

"The Antarctic Treaty was signed to promote international cooperation."

• This is historically and politically accurate. The Antarctic Treaty (1959) sets aside Antarctica as a scientific preserve and bans military activity to promote international scientific cooperation.
• This describes how people adapt and manage activities to live/work in this region.

Evaluate the third sentence

"Antarctica is so cold that it cannot support life."

• This is scientifically inaccurate. Despite the extreme Antarctic Climate, Antarctica supports various forms of life, including penguins, seals, krill, lichens, mosses, and terrestrial microbes.

Evaluate the fourth sentence

"The ocean surrounding Antarctica is the Pacific Ocean."

• This is geographically inaccurate. The ocean surrounding Antarctica is officially designated as the Southern Ocean (or Antarctic Ocean).

Evaluate the fifth sentence

"Researchers study Antarctic glaciers to see how the Earth's climate has changed over time."

• This is scientifically accurate. Ice cores extracted from glaciers are primary tools in Glaciology to reconstruct historical climate records.
• This describes a key way humans interact with and adapt to the region for scientific research.
