Arrange the following ecological hotspots of the World from West to East :

(1) Tropical Andes
(2) Upper Guinean Forests
(3) Eastern Medagaskar
(4) Melanesia (New Caledonia)

Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  • A.(1), (2), (3), (4)
  • B.(2), (3), (4), (1)
  • C.(3), (4), (1), (2)
  • D.(4), (3), (2), (1)

Answer: A

From west to east the order is (1), (2), (3), (4).

  1. Tropical Andes: South America, about 75° W.
  2. Upper Guinean Forests: West Africa, about 5-10° W.
  3. Eastern Madagascar (printed 'Medagaskar'): about 48° E.
  4. Melanesia (New Caledonia): in the south-west Pacific, about 165° E.

Moving east from the Andes across the Atlantic to West Africa, then to the Indian Ocean and on to the Pacific gives this order. The other options start further east.
