The approach that some of the geographical facts according to Ritter, cannot be explained scientifically, is termed as

  • A.Ecological
  • B.Regional
  • C.Teleological
  • D.Locational

Answer: C

The approach that some geographical facts, according to Ritter, cannot be explained scientifically and must be understood as the working out of a divine plan is called teleological. Karl Ritter believed that the earth was made by God as a home for man, and so looked for purpose in nature.

The ecological approach studies organism and environment relations, the regional approach studies areas as units, and the locational approach studies the spatial positions of things. None of these appeals to a divine purpose, so the key is teleological.
