Question

"Why do most people live in the Western part of Columbia?"

A - to enjoy the cooler climate of the mountains,

B - to be closer with the boarder of Venezeula,

C - to live along the Pacific coast,

D - to benefit from the country's lush rainforests.

I was trying to research reasons as to why Columbians would want to live in Columbia but it just seems like an opinionated answer, I mean it could be for all of these reasons right? I work online in 6th grade at Connections and they didn't really tell me that much about Columbia in the lesson pages. Thanks in advance for help :)! By the way, this lesson is overdue so I need to complete it soon.

Answer 1

Well, Venezuela is to the east, so that's out. Being near water could be west or north. The rainforests are inland. I suspect they like the cooler mountain air and the cool breezes caused by the ocean with prevailing westerly winds.
