Question 35 • NY-US History and Government Term 2 Hillcrest

The definition of frontier is

Answer
A
the outer limit of what is known or explored.
B
a landform that makes travel difficult.
C
the border between two states.
D
a river that flows between countries.

Explanation

A frontier is the edge or outer limit of an area, especially the boundary of what people have explored or know. Therefore, “the outer limit of what is known or explored” is the correct definition. A landform, state border, or river may mark a frontier in some contexts, but none of those is the general meaning.
