I'm sorry, but I cannot view images directly. However, I can help you analyze the options based on geographical knowledge.

  • North Africa typically includes countries like Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco, usually north of the Sahara Desert.
  • Sub-Saharan Africa refers to the region of Africa located south of the Sahara Desert and includes a diverse range of countries and climates.
  • The Great Rift Valley is a geographical and geological feature that runs from the Middle East down through Eastern Africa and is known for its valley and lakes.
  • The Ethiopian Highlands refer to a specific highland area in Ethiopia characterized by rugged terrain and high elevations, often considered one of the major mountain regions of Africa.

If you can provide a description of the region circled on the map, I can help you determine which term fits best.
