A is NOT the correct answer, regardless of what your on-line course says. The old (antebellum) South is no more rocky than other places, less so than New England, the Western Mountains, etc.

I'm sorry! Re-reading the question, which is NOT the reason, A IS correct. I misread it. My excuse is that I'm coming down with a cold and sneezing a lot, so, perhaps missed that key word during a Kleenex bout. I apologize.
A is correct
