2. The Andes mountain range runs along the western coast of South America.
3. The Falkland Islands (also known as the Malvinas) are located in the southern Atlantic Ocean, east of Argentina.
Inferences:
1. Countries located in the southern part of South America (such as Chile and Argentina) may experience colder temperatures due to their proximity to Antarctica.
2. The countries located in the western region of South America (such as Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru) may face more geological activity such as earthquakes due to their location on the Pacific Ring of Fire.
3. The countries located in the northern part of South America (such as Venezuela and Guyana) may have more tropical climates due to their proximity to the equator.
