Explanation
The map shows the map of the United States and the amount of representation lost or won chairs. With orange color are the states that lost two or more, in yellow, are those that lost one, in gray are those that did not lose or win, in blue are those that won one, and in dark blue are those that won more than two. The map shows the states of New York and Ohio in orange; the states of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Michigan, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, and Louisiana colored yellow. On the other hand, Florida and Texas dark blue; Georgia, South Carolina, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, and Washington are in blue. While the rest of the states are in gray. Based on the above, it can be said that from the color in which they are on the map, the majority of the Northeast and Midwest states decreased as a part of the total national population. So the correct answer is A.
