Answer:

Low birth weight are more frequent at high altitude

Explanation:

From research that has been conducted overtime it has been established that birth weight declines with an increasing altitude. High altitude causes a reduction in birth weight compared to those who live at sea level. Babies born on high altitude could be about some ounces lighter than those that are born at sea level. On the average as altitude rises by about 3,300 feet, fetal weight reduces by about 3.5 ounces.

Setler [38]

The correct answer is A. Tierra Fria.

Tierra Fria is composed of highlands, but even though it is very high area, because of the low latitude and high altitude, this area has a very pleasant climate which is actually pretty similar to the oceanic coastal regions of the temperate climates. Because of this, it is very suitable for the livestock, since the weather conditions are very nice, the grass is green for most of the year and it is in abundance, plus the region is clean, and also lacks predators.
