Answer 1

The statement that is true about globalization is: "Globalization is often limited due to Earth’s physical characteristics such as mountain ranges and rivers."

While globalization has increased the interconnectedness of countries and economies, physical geography can create barriers to trade and communication, impacting the extent and nature of globalization in certain regions.

The other statements have inaccuracies:

• Globalization typically facilitates trade (like coffee from the Bean Belt to northern latitudes) rather than being limited by it.
• Globalization tends to increase the number of functional regions as interactions and networks expand.
• Globalization can actually help countries work together to address climate change by facilitating the sharing of technologies and cooperation on environmental policies.
