The largest area is the country - Sudan (2.5 million kv.km.), and the largest city is Lagos (more than 10 million people.
The word is provided by Africa.

Africa: "There is every reason to believe that I, Africa, was a" cradle "of a person who broke out of my anti-essential forests on other continents. My cultural heritage is very large. This oral folk creativity is folklore, this monumental architecture originated in ancient Egypt is decorative and applied art that retains the traditions of ancient rock painting. Almost every people have their own musical culture, preserves the features of singing and dance, musical instruments. From ancient times there are both theatrical rites, rituals, ritual masks.

(Dance Chung-Chang).
Thank you guys, for a gift, compliments and knowledge of my part of the world. "


Final word teacher geography: " So the geographical ball of the old parts of the world came up to the end.
You were convinced that Europe, Asia and Africa made a great contribution to the development of world civilization, they have amazing nature, unique natural objects, but each of them has its own unique face. We are directly related to two parts of the world, as our country Russia has the Eurasian position. There are few such countries in the world. With new parts of the world, we hope we will meet next year. "

Europe
R. Amundsen- Norwegian traveler 19-20 V.V. His main merit is that he was the first to reach the Southern Pole in 1911 on December 14. The path and back took 99 days. In 1926, he visited the North Pole. He was the first person for whom no insurmountable obstacles existed.
Tour Heyerdal- Norwegian traveler, navigator, scientist, public figure 20th century. For the first time in the history of science, he conducted an experimental test of the hypothesis about the population of Polynesia Islands by the inhabitants of South America. An accurate copy of the heap of the ancient Indians with a straight sail and the image of the Sun Kon-Tika was made. It was in 1947. 101 day went to swim, and the distance of 8 thousand km was overcome. Then there were navigation on the sailing boat "RA" and "Tigris", and the crews were international. Including a doctor from Russia Yuri Senkevich. All navigation T. Heyerdala promoted rapprochement of various countries and peoples.

And now I invite you to go on a tour of the underwater world of a large barrier reef (slides, a story about BB Reef).
I am the lowest part of the world; There are no young mountains in my territory nor acting volcanoes
I am the most arid of all parts of the world, so half the square is engaged in deserts and semi-deserts. In my coloring is prevailing reddish tones (slides). But I am known, first of all, the fact that animals and plants from past geological eras are preserved in my territory. In other continents, they have long disappeared, and I was isolated and removed from other parts of the world.
Especially surprisingly animal world - mammal eggs: wall-mammal and echid (slides);
Among birds: Lyrohvost, Kazaire, Green Parrots, Ostrich Emu (slides)

The inhabitants of my part of the world show care of their vegetable wealth: in every major city there is its botanical garden, each state of the Australian Union has its botanical emblem. Love Australians and their unique animals. Some representatives are depicted on Australian coins. And the extremely popular ostrich of Emeu and Kangaroo are depicted on the state's state coat of arms. And the choice of these animals is not accidental: they kind of symbolize progress, move forward, since neither the EMU, or the kangaroo can not steal back.
My historical past is complex and difficult. I was first a prison for the convicts, then the colony of Great Britain, survived several "gold fever", and at the beginning of the 20th century. became the dominion of the UK.

Geographer and geographical: "Part of the light of Antarctica almost completely lies with the southern polar circle. Opened on January 28, 1820, the F. F. Expedition Bellinshausen and M.P. Lazarev.
Antarctica Square 14 million km.2 is the highest part of the world. The average height of more than 2000 m. From other parts of the world is characterized by a grand glaciation; Glaciers are not covered only 0.4% of its territory. There is a valid volcano Erebus.
Antarctica lies in Ap and Subap. The average t winter -50-70 °, the average t summer 0 to -30 °. Absolute minimum -89.2 °. The precipitate is only solid. Characteristic Stock Winds, speed reaches 90m / s. Lies in the PZ Antarctic desert. There is no permanent population. About 40 scientific stations are operating here, which belong to 16 states.
In 1959, an international treaty was signed, according to which this part of the world will be used only for peaceful purposes.
The word is provided by Antarctica. "

Antarctica: "I, Antarctica or anti-Arctic, the polar region lying on the south side of the globe opposite to the Arctic. I, the edge of snow and ice, blindingly shining in the rays of the polar day and shrouded the clouds and the whirlies of the Purggy in the darkness of the polar night.
People looked for me for a very long time, but for the first time they saw the Russian sailors - participants of the expedition under the leadership of F.F. Bellinghausen and M.P. Lazarev on the Vostok and Mirny ships. It was in January 1820. They denied the assumption of D. Buck that the southern mainland does not exist. In swimming, the expedition stayed 751 days, the courts passed 92 thousand CM. It was the great discovery of the 19th century, because An integer part of the world was opened. Glory to Russian navigators and the Russian fleet. Almost a hundred years after my discovery was conquered by the South Pole. In December 1911 The most southern point of the Earth reached Norwegian Roal Amudsen, and in January 1912. - Englishman Robert Cattle.
I mainland images. Please choose these images and comment on them (they say images, slides).
My symbol is a penguin.
(Song "In Antarctica Ice")
I invite you to visit you, and you will never forget the Great Silence of the Ice Desert, painted in the morning clock in the gentle blue, lilac and pink pastels, cold rims of polar shine, cozy lights of wintering. "
After the presentation of all parts of the world, they (parts of the world) form mini teams from students and teachers and make a presentation of products of light parts.

Final word teacher geography: "So the geographical ball of new parts of the world approached the end.
You made sure that America, Australia and Antarctica, as well as Europe, Asia and Africa, have made a great contribution to the development of world civilization, they have amazing nature, unique natural objects, but each of them has its own unique face.
Thank you all for your attention, participation, to new meetings. "

How many parts of the lights on earth? Europeans in the 16th century divided the world into four continents: Africa, America, Asia and Europe. It seemed that each of them was his quadrant of the world. Europe - on - in the East, Africa - in the south and America - in the West. This separation corresponded to the trends of that era - then the world was divided into four seasons, four classic elements, four cardinal directions and so on.

Ancient trilateral world

How many parts of the lights on earth? In times, when people have not yet known anything about America, Australia and Antarctica, there were not so many. Before the discovery of the new light in the classic and medieval geography, three parts of the Earth's light were highlighted - Europe, Asia and Africa. As once said to his readers Laurent de Primefit (the outstanding French translator of Latin literature at the beginning of the fifteenth century): "Asia is one of three parts of the world, which extends to the east to the rising sun."

If you look through the eyes of a modern geographer, then the Ural Mountains that share Europe from Asia are a geological seam between two fragmented continents or briefs. Another divisible factor was Gellespont (the ancient name of the Dardanesely Strait). He gently separated Europe from Asia. From a European point of view, in the opening era, Asia began outside Gellespont, where the Roman province was located, extending to incredibly exotic and remote places ...

How many parts of the lights on earth?

In the sixteenth century, America was full of fascinating promises about the new world. So the fourth part of the world appeared. After official confirmation that Australia was an island continent, the topic of four continents lost most of its relevance long before the sixth continent was discovered, Antarctica. However, despite this, the "four corners of the world" iconography remained in the same form.

Parts of light and continent

A total of six continents, of which Australia is the smallest, and the largest Eurasia, which is geologically one of the whole, but for convenience it was divided into Europe and Asia. Between them was a conditional border along the Ural Mountains.

Parts of light, as well as continents, there are six. The most densely populated and alpine - Asia. America consists of two mainlands, which are interconnected by the Panaman Cleans. Africa from Asia is separated by the Suez Canal. There are such continents that do not come into contact with the rest are Australia and Ice Antarctica.

Single array descended by different sides

It is likely that some scientists believe, all continents were once one of the whole, a single array, which over time went to pieces under the influence of the internal forces of the Earth. There is an assumption that certain areas on the planet rose, while others, on the contrary, have dropped. The mystery of the emergence of the continents still remains a relevant issue in geography, people still remain only one thing - build various hypotheses. Perhaps the future generation of scientists will be able to shed light on endless secrets of the universe.

What is the difference between parts of light from the mainland?

What are parts of the world and what do they differ from the mainland? Let's deal with. The continents are large sushi segments that are on the World Ocean Low. Parts of light refer to the areas to which the surface of the planet from historical and cultural considerations is convened. The difference between them lies in the fact that these concepts are used in completely different apartments. The main difference is that the "mainland" is a geological and geographical term, and "part of the world" is a concept associated with history, culture, politics.

The continents are of interest, first of all, as really existing physical objects. Geology and geography are engaged in their detailed study, including the study of powerful processes that occur on Earth. As a rule, the continents are separated from each other by the oceans, but there are those that are fine neighbors (Eurasia).

How many parts of the lights on earth? Despite the fact that their borders and the boundaries of the continents do not coincide with all 100%, there are also six in terms of quantity. Eurasia, for example, is one mainland, but is divided into two parts of light - Europe and Asia. A little different things about America. There are two mainland form one part of the world. Only Africa, Australia, Antarctica coincide.

Juicy, sugar, which is almost all associated with hot summer, is the subject of discussion for many centuries. So what is watermelons - berries, fruits or vegetables? Our article will help you deal with this issue.

The birthplace of watermelon and its distribution

Scientists have proven that the ancestor of watermelon is a wild colocidant, whose homeland is the Desert Kalahari (South Africa). A small plant with a powerful root system and bitter fruits served as a source of water for caravan. As a magnificent culture, watermelon first began to cultivate the ancient Egyptians (XX century BC). A little later, he recognized the ancient Rome. In China, sweet fruits have already come to the X century, where they found crazy popularity.

The ancestor of the watermelon is the wild colocidant

Russia got acquainted with the Bakhchev Plant only by the XIII century. Thanks to crusades. And by the end of the XVII century. Sweet fruits have already been supplied to the royal table. They did not eat fresh, but they were preparing a spicy molasses from the pulp. Later, the decree of King Peter I was prescribed to sow a mudflower culture on the Lower Volga region. The peasants removed the variety-resistant to local climate for a long time, while the famous Astrakhan and Volgograd watermelons did not appear as a result of the selection.

Video "Useful properties of watermelon"

From this video you will learn what useful and harmful properties are watermelon.

Definitions and theory

To determine how many categories are the watermelon, you must first consider each of them.

Berry

Botany's science determines the berry as a thin-skinned fruit with one or multiple seeds and meaty pulp. The only similarity of watermelon with a similar description is soft and juicy inside. The rest can be called the following differences:
