FIND THE MISSING WORDS

1.  Africa runs 5 000 miles from the Mediterranean sea all the way down to the cape of good hope and 4 600 miles from  the cape Verde  all the way over to Somalia.

2.      Biomes are climate zones and throughout that area, throughout that  region  , you can see the same average  temperature and average  precipitation  what that means is that you also see very similar animals and plants  living in that region.

3.      The most famous desert in Africa is, of course, the Sahara desert. Now, some parts of the Sahara desert are   sandy  , like you can see here. Other parts of the Sahara desert are  rocky  but in either case, the fact that it is very  dry  is going to make it a very difficult barrier to cross.

4.      It is not the  rain  itself that’s particularly important, it’s also the biodiversity. There are many different  plants and animals   That can be found in the rainforest   and that’s one of the thing that makes the rainforest so  variable not just in Africa but throughout the Earth.

5.      The  Nile  is the most famous river in Africa, because is the  longest river in the world. But there is also the  Congo river  which is the  second longest river in the world.

6.      Africa actually has its own version of the  Great  Lakes with famous lakes like Lake Malawi  lake Victoria and lake  Tanganyika .

7.      All the Africa is a plateau. Meaning that Africa itself is an   elevated   land. But that doesn’t mean you can’t find any   mountains in Africa. You can find mountain ranges like, for example, the Atlas in northwestern Africa.

8.      Africa also has some interesting mountains like  Kilimajaro  mountain , the highest  peak in Africa which seems to just  rise on it own out of the  ground.

9.      The Great Rift Valley refers to a region of Africa that is  literally, being  split apart. There are some  tectonic plates  that are located within or near Africa, that are, actually,  moving away from each other, and what’s doing is creating not just some of the highest  elevations in Africa, but also lakes like  Tanganyika that is among the  deepest in the world.
