Answer 2

8. the sahara extends into southern africa

Answer 3

Regarding question 8, let’s clarify the correct response based on that statement:

The correct answer to the statement “The Sahara extends into southern Africa.” is True, but it is context-dependent.

The Sahara Desert primarily covers a large portion of North Africa, but it does not extend into the sub-Saharan regions traditionally classified as "southern Africa." Therefore, while parts of the Sahara may touch northern regions of some southern African countries, it is not accurate to say it extends extensively into southern Africa as a whole.

Thus, if the question is asking which statement is NOT true about the Sahara, then the response “The Sahara extends into southern Africa.” is the correct choice because the Sahara is not recognized as existing within southern Africa in the broader geographical context.

So, the correct response for question 8 should be:

The Sahara extends into southern Africa. (This is NOT true in the context of its main coverage area being primarily North Africa.)
