Explanation:

The Alps,and the Apennines prevented people from entering the Peninsula, because they contained several volcanoes. The Apennines also isolated the people of

Italy from their neighbors.

The Alps is the highest mountain in Europe which isolated the Italian peninsula from the rest of the continents and also contains several valcano edifices like the forming of Nabro Volcano range. The Apennine Mountains also caused difficulties for people

to move from one side of the peninsula to the other.

Answer 2

Answer:

a. The Alps prevented large movements of people into the Peninsula, but the Apennines, while rugged, could easily be crossed. Romans were not isolated.

Explanation:

This is the statement that best describes the geographical situation of Italy. The Alps, which lie at the north of the country, are a significant barrier to movement. Therefore, the mountains prevented large movements of people into the Peninsula. On the other hand, the Apennines, which lie across the country, could easily be crossed, along for contact between the Romans and the various people in the Italian peninsula.
