GEO quiz - which of these statements is true?

[AviatorTom]

Now that Summer has started, how about an interesting Geography question.

The poll below lists several geography "facts". Which of them is true? Or maybe they are all True? Or maybe none are true?

The highest point in the world's smallest country is less than 100 m above sea level.

There are almost 3 million times more ants than people on Earth.

When an iceberg melts, sea level does not rise.

The closest point to the moon on Earth is a mountain in South America.

MORE THAN ONE, but NOT ALL, of these are TRUE - please tell which ones

ALL of these are TRUE

NONE of these are TRUE

They are ALL TRUE !!!
Vatican City hill is only 78 m
20 quadrillion ants, 8 billion people
Iceberg's melted fresh water just decreases the ocean's salinity, no change in sea level
Since Earth bulges at the Equator, Volcán Chimborazo in Ecuador is closest to Moon

I'm totally guessing here

1. TRUE

I'm assuming you mean natural and not manmade. I didn't realize 100 meters was THAT high and rereading your option, you did say "LESS". I've been to the Vatican and I don't think anything is THAT high, so I'll say TRUE for that one

2. TRUE. I believe it

3. I'll say TRUE. Even if it does, it's so minimal that it's not even noticable. I feel it would have to be a pretty damn big iceberg to impact the sea levels

4. FALSE. I wanna say "true", but at the same time since the moon isn't stationary, I would imagine that the closest points would alternate. So I'm gonna say false for that one. Especially since I feel there has to be at least one false in there. The mountain you speak of is Aconcagua.

@KostasKouvalis Good analysis. Aconcagua is not the mountain though.

the Vatican is smaller than my backyard and only has hills so that checks out... there's a bunchzillion of ants compared to humans, so the guesstimated figure might be around that but a recent guesstimate might give you a smaller number, since we're decimating the critters population rapidly...

icebergs melting does not raise sea levels SIGNIFICANTLY but it might add some to it and about the closest point to the moon... when you pinpoint the Equatorial line to the South American region you get the Andes which is not the highest mountain range in average but it does sit at the "closest" point on earth... to the moon

I think all are true ex ept the one with the ants. There are 3 million of them just in my backyard

I guess 3,000,000 X 8,000,000,000 is a big number.

= 24,000,000,000,000,000

[Dongie]

More than one but not all are true.

1 & 2

I thought the iceberg thing had to be false and the moon thing seemed too true to believe.

[msc545]

1, 2, and 3 are true. 4 is false.

I love your trivia questions, Tom.

I think B and C are true.
