Which term describes the exact location of a place on Earth using global coordinates?

• A. Absolute Location
• B. Relative Location
• C. El Nino
• D. Erosion

Answer: (A)

The idea here is absolute location—the exact position of a place on Earth described by global coordinates. Using latitude and longitude pins a spot precisely on the globe, independent of anything else. For example, coordinates like 40.7128° N, 74.0060° W identify a specific point helps with navigation and mapping. In contrast, relative location describes where a place is in relation to other places or landmarks (like “north of the river”), which isn’t a single precise point. El Niño is a climate pattern affecting weather, and erosion is the process of wearing away rocks and soil—neither describes an exact spot on the Earth. So the term that fits the description is absolute location.
