Answer:
The Quebec-City-Windsor Corridor
Explanation:
The population density of Canada is 4 people/km².
The most densely-populated urban areas are Vancouver and Montreal (4800/km²).
The most densely populated region of Canada (80/km²) is the Quebec-City-Windsor Corridor. It contains almost half the population of Canada.
There are two main reasons for this.
(a) Climate
The region is entirely below the 47th parallel, so the summers are warm, the winters are not harsh, and the area is suitable for agriculture.
(b) Location
The corridor is close to the border with the United States and carries the bulk of Canada's trade with them. It makes sense for people to live as close to the US border as possible.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
The West contains several major biomes, including arid and semi-arid plateaus and plains, particularly in the American Southwest; forested mountains, including two major ranges, the American Sierra Nevada and Rocky Mountains; the long coastal shoreline of the American Pacific Coast; and the rainforests of the Pacific .

higher the altitude, the lower the atmospheric pressure. Lower pressure
in turn causes water to evaporate more quickly, and water actually
boils at a lower temperature. The percentage of oxygen in the air at two
miles (3.2 km.) is the same as at sea level (21%). However, the air
pressure is 30% lower at the higher altitude due to the fact that the
atmosphere is less dense--that is, the air molecules are farther apart.
The important effect of this decrease in pressure is this: in a given
volume of air, there are fewer molecules present. This is really just
another way of saying that the pressure is lower. This is called Boyle's
law.</span>
