What is one reason for low population density in hilly areas?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Steep slopes and difficult transport

The direct answer is A: steep slopes and difficult transport are reasons for low density in hilly areas. Relief, or the shape and height of land, affects where people can live and work. Step by step, steep slopes make house construction and roads difficult; transport becomes costly and slow; farming land is often limited and machines are harder to use; jobs and services may therefore be fewer; many people may choose flatter, more accessible places. Option A is correct because it gives two connected physical difficulties. Option B is wrong because very level land generally makes construction and transport easier. Option C is wrong because ports are found near suitable coasts or waterways, not everywhere in hills. Option D is wrong because farming is not always easy on steep land. Memory cue: difficult relief often means difficult roads, farming and settlement.
