उत्तर
- Geography is mainly classified into two major branches: physical geography and human geography. Both of these branches are further divided into several subfields.
- Physical geography focuses on studying natural elements and processes. It includes detailed studies of different spheres of the Earth, such as the lithosphere (land), hydrosphere (water), atmosphere (air), and biosphere (life). Sub-fields under physical geography include astronomy, geomorphology, geology, pedology, oceanography, climatology, and biogeography.
- Human geography examines how humans interact with their environment. This branch places humans at the centre of study and mainly covers topics like population distribution, human settlements, and economic activities.
- The sub-branches of human geography include political geography, population geography, social geography, historical geography, cultural geography, regional geography, urban geography, and settlement geography. All sub-disciplines of physical and human geography are interconnected and often influence each other.
