1. Only 1
2. Only 2
3. Both 1 and 2
4. Neither 1 nor 2

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 2 : Only 2

The correct answer is Only 2.

• The Sea of Galilee is instituted in northeast Israel, between the Golan Heights and the Galilee region, in the Jordan Rift Valley, the valley elaborated by the dissociation of the African and Arabian plates.
• Consequently, that sector is subject to earthquakes, and in the previous, volcanic activity.
• This is explicit from the copious basalt and other igneous rocks that define the geology of Galilee. Hence statement 1 is incorrect.
•  The Tafilalet oasis in Libya is bordered by a wall to remain the dust storms, locally called simooms. Hence statement 2 is correct.

• Tafilalet or Tafilet, historically Sijilmasa, is an area and the largest oasis located in Morocco.
• The word "Tafilalet" is an Amazigh word and it depicts "Jug", which is specifically a pottery jar used to gather water.
