Right Blessings, let's go. 24. a. (i) Name the type of transport shown in the diagram The diagram shows a ship, which operates on water. Water transport (ii) State any two weather conditions that negatively affect the movement of this type of transport Two weather conditions that negatively affect water transport are: Strong winds/storms: These can create rough seas, making navigation difficult and dangerous, and potentially causing damage to vessels or cargo. Fog: Reduced visibility due to fog can lead to navigation errors, collisions, and delays as vessels must slow down or stop. (iii) Mention any one example of goods which is transported using the type of transport shown in the diagram A common example of goods transported by water is: Petrol (or other bulk liquids like crude oil, or heavy goods like coal, grain, containers) b. (i) Describe any two factors which affect the development of transport routes in Malawi Two factors affecting the development of transport routes in Malawi are: Topography/Terrain: Malawi's varied landscape, including mountainous regions and the Great Rift Valley, can make the construction of roads and railways challenging and expensive. Difficult terrain requires more complex engineering solutions, increasing costs and construction time. Economic Development and Funding: The level of economic development and available financial resources significantly impacts the ability to invest in and maintain transport infrastructure. Limited government budgets and reliance on foreign aid can slow down the expansion and improvement of transport routes. (ii) Explain any one challenge associated with communication in Malawi One challenge associated with communication in Malawi is: Limited Infrastructure and Accessibility: Many rural areas in Malawi lack adequate communication infrastructure, such as reliable mobile network coverage and internet access. This digital divide means that a significant portion of the population cannot easily access information, educational resources, or participate in the digital economy. Send me the next one 📸
