Answer:

Hope this helps :)

Explanation:

The primary driver of earthquakes in Japan is its location on the tectonically active Ring of Fire, where many earthquakes occur. The fact that Japan is an island nation with much coastline also makes it vulnerable to tsunamis. In addition, much of Japan’s population lives close to the coast because of the country’s mountainous interior.

The eastward migration of Russians to the Pacific coastal zone since 1991 has been so great as to overburden the available accom
vagabundo [1.1K]

The correct answer is B. False

Explanation:

Russia is considered the largest country in the world, located in both Asia and Europe. In terms of population, most of the Russian population is now located in the western zone of the country or in Europe, which includes cities such as Moscow or St. Petersburg. Despite this, since the 19th century and especially during the Soviet Union period there were migrations of Russians eastward or towards the Pacific coastal zone, which led to the creation of Russian settlements in new zones.

However, in the last decades, this migration pattern has decreased and settlements in the east are still small in comparison to those of the west. In this context, the eastward migration has not been a huge phenomenon since 1991, and even if there is still migration and the government promotes this, it has not led to a lack of accommodations or restrictions, which makes the statement false.
