Answer:

Geographers spend time comparing conditions in different places and regions of the world in order to compare or differentiate landforms, climates, economies, people and cultures and maybe even resources.

Step-by-step explanation:

For instance, if you know that all the countries in the different continents were combined as a super continent before continental drift came into being, you would realise that certain countries in South America may have particular features or something similar to those of Australia or any other country. In can either be through the finding of fossils, landforms, etc.

Hope this helps in some way :)
