Question 13
To determine the continent flown over when traveling east from South America to Australia, we analyze the geographical positions. South America is in the western hemisphere, and Australia is in the southern - eastern hemisphere. When flying east from South America, the path goes over Africa (which is in the eastern hemisphere, between South America and Australia in terms of east - west flight path). Antarctica is at the bottom, Asia is to the north - east of Australia, and North America is to the north - west of South America, so they are not on this east - bound flight path from South America to Australia.
Europe is located in the northern hemisphere. When moving south from Europe, we look at the continents in the southern direction. Africa is located to the south of Europe (separated by the Mediterranean Sea). South America is far to the west - south, North America is to the west - north, and Australia is far to the south - east. So, moving south from Europe, we end up in Africa.
We examine the adjacency of each continent. Europe is connected to Asia (Eurasia), Africa is connected to Asia (via the Isthmus of Suez - related land connections), and Asia is connected to Europe and has land - based or near - land connections to other continents. Antarctica is a continent surrounded by the Southern Ocean and is not in contact with any other continent.
