    Why do Fijians live on the coast of the islands?

    • Because volcanic rock is in the middle of the islands.

    • Because people prefer the beach

    • Because food doesn't grow in the middle of the island

    • Because tourists wouldn't want to climb the mountian

    Correct Answer
    A. Because volcanic rock is in the middle of the islands.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Because volcanic rock is in the middle of the islands." This suggests that the reason Fijians live on the coast is because the middle of the islands is occupied by volcanic rock, making it unsuitable for settlement.

    How many islands make up the country of Fiji?  

    • 6

    • More than 120

    • More than 332

    • More than 4

    Correct Answer
    A. More than 332
    Explanation
    Fiji is made up of more than 332 islands. This is because Fiji is an archipelago in the South Pacific Ocean, consisting of a large number of islands. The exact number of islands in Fiji is difficult to determine as it depends on the definition of an "island" and whether it includes small islets and reefs. However, it is generally accepted that Fiji has over 332 islands, with some sources stating that the number could be as high as 333 islands.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    What created the islands 150 million years ago?

    • Moving tectonic plates

    • An asteroid hit the main island

    • A wave hit Papua New guinea

    • Volcanic activity

    Correct Answer
    A. Volcanic activity
    Explanation
    Volcanic activity is the correct answer because it is a well-known geological process that can create islands. When tectonic plates move apart, magma rises to the surface and forms new landmasses through volcanic eruptions. This process, known as seafloor spreading, has been responsible for the formation of many islands around the world. The age of the islands, 150 million years ago, aligns with the time when volcanic activity was prevalent in the Earth's history.
