Explanation

The chapter states that 'oceans and continents are not distributed equally between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.' Looking at Fig. 2.2, the Southern Hemisphere shows more blue (water) area compared to the Northern Hemisphere, which has more landmass. The chapter also notes that 'The Northern Hemisphere has more land than the Southern Hemisphere,' which means the Southern Hemisphere has more water.
