Answer 1

The statement "Studying regions enables us to learn about the details of a place" is true. Focusing on specific regions allows for an in-depth exploration of various physical and human characteristics, providing a more comprehensive understanding of those areas.

The statement "Studying regions enables us to apply the concept of scales of analysis" is also true, as examining regions can highlight differences and similarities at various scales, such as local, regional, national, or global levels.

The other two statements are misleading. Studying regions does not necessarily help us avoid generalization; rather, it can lead to more nuanced understandings that may contradict simple generalizations. Additionally, studying regions often requires recognizing overlaps and interactions between regions rather than avoiding that acknowledgment.
