Plantation crops are typically tropical crops that are grown on a large scale in plantations. These include rubber, oil palm, and cocoa. Rye, on the other hand, is a cereal grain that's not typically grown on plantations, making it not a plantation crop.

Tourism is significantly boosted by adequate publicity about natural scenery. This is because it attracts tourists who are interested in exploring and experiencing the beauty of nature. The other options such as higher dependency ratio of the population, specialization in labour force, and variation in mode of transportation do not directly boost tourism.

Chemical weathering involves the process of rock decomposition due to chemical reactions. The processes include carbonation, hydrolysis, and oxidation. Frost action, on the other hand, is a form of physical weathering where water seeps into cracks in rocks, freezes, and expands, causing the rock to break apart. Therefore, frost action is not a process of chemical weathering.

Countries of Tropical Africa usually experience rural-urban migration i.e [movement from rural to urban settlement]

The moderating influence of the sea is the reason why a smaller range of temperature is recorded along the coast than the continental interior on the same latitudes. This is because water has a higher specific heat capacity than land, meaning it can absorb and release heat more slowly than land. This results in cooler summers and warmer winters along the coast, leading to a smaller temperature range.
