World Facts and Geography

China was having its own culture with strong tilt towards communism. Though  European powers established parts of coastal cities or trade ports as "concessions," which they occupied and controlled. Some, such as Shanghai, were divided into multiple European concessions. Others, like British-controlled Hong Kong, were fully absorbed into the European empires. This is why China is labelled as partially dominated by Europe.

Rinderpest was an infectious viral disease of cattle, domestic buffalo, and some other species of even-toed ungulates, including buffaloes, large antelope and deer, giraffes, wildebeests, and warthogs.

Sexual reproduction is critical for maintaining genetic diversity within a species because it combines the parents genetic material, resulting in offspring with unique genetic blueprints different from either parent. Genetic diversity is important for two reasons. First of all, when a population of an organism contains a large gene poolthat is, if the genetic blueprints of individuals in the population vary significantly the group has a greater chance of surviving and flourishing than a population with limited genetic variability. Second, genetic diversity also reduces the incidence of unfavorable inherited traits. The home lands of our food crops are vital geographic regions where the greatest genetic diversity for each species can be found. Because in homelands there are more chances of sexual reproduction with in the species which is critical for maintaining genetic diversity. Thus, option B is correct. Greatest genetic diversity of plants is not found in Central America, India and South America. Thus, other options are wrong.

According to GSMA (Global System for Mobile Communications Association) Intelligence’s 2015 operator rankings, China Mobile had 886 million connections at the end of 2015 compared with Vodafone’s 461 million.

The production of cocoa begins in the tropical regions around the Equator, where the hot and humid climate is well suited for growing cocoa trees. 70% of the world's cocoa beans come from four West African countries: Ivory Coast, Ghana, Nigeria and Cameroon.
