In geography, place or the careful observation/examination/description of a particular environment is especially important. It deals with earth systems and their processes and patterns like the atmosphere (air), the hydrosphere (water), the lithosphere (earth solid rock), and the biosphere, which encompasses all of earth’s living organisms. It focuses on various kinds of forests, grasslands, distribution of flora and fauna, human-nature relationships, and the quality of the living environment and its implications for human welfare. In geography, we tend to understand human-environment interactions and look at how the environment shapes human activity and how human activity shapes the environment. It deals with methods and techniques for field studies, qualitative quantitative and cartographic analysis, and Geographic Information System and Global Positioning System (GIS and GPS), and remote sensing. It describes the culture, populations, dynamics of social, economic, and political aspects of space. From the above, we can conclude that all the statements mentioned in the question regarding the nature of geography as a social science subject are true.
