The ratio of land to ocean in the southern hemisphere is

  • A.1 to 1.5
  • B.1 to 1
  • C.1 to 4
  • D.1 to 10

Answer: C

In the southern hemisphere land covers only about a fifth of the surface, giving a land-to-ocean ratio of roughly 1 to 4. It is often called the water hemisphere for this reason.

The northern hemisphere is far more balanced, at close to 1 to 1.5, because almost all of Eurasia and North America lie there.
