Sure! I'd be happy to help you check your answers and explain how to find the correct ones.
1. What factor most explains why the majority of Russians live in the western part of the country?
To find the answer, you can consider each option and eliminate the ones that are less likely. Government regulations, climate, language, and natural resources are all potential factors, but the option that best explains why the majority of Russians live in the western part of the country is natural resources. The western part of Russia, particularly areas like Moscow and St. Petersburg, has more economic opportunities and better access to natural resources, which attracts people to settle there.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. natural resources.
2. Which of the following is the major religion in Russia?
To determine the major religion in Russia, you need to consider the religious demographics of the country. While Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, and Islam are all practiced in Russia, the major religion is Christianity. Orthodox Christianity, specifically Russian Orthodoxy, is the dominant religion in Russia.
So, the correct answer is A. Christianity.
3. Which of the following is a reason why few people live in Siberia?
To find the correct answer, let's examine each option. The long distances between cities creating isolation may be a possible reason, but it is not the main factor. The presence of active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes is another option, but this is not a primary reason why few people live in Siberia. The same applies to the idea that most of the region is off-limits to settlement to protect its natural resources.
The best answer is B. The permafrost makes the construction of roads and buildings difficult. Siberia experiences extremely cold temperatures, and the ground is permanently frozen (permafrost), making it challenging to build infrastructure like roads and buildings. This hampers habitation and settlement in the region.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. The permafrost makes the construction of roads and buildings difficult.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions or need further assistance.
