Physical Geography of Southeast Asia — Quiz

Question 3 • World Geography

How did tectonic activity shape Southeast Asia’s geography?

Answer
A
by creating many mountains and volcanoes
B
by enlarging broad ocean coastlines
C
by carving out deep paths for rivers
D
by fertilizing important agricultural areas

Explanation

Southeast Asia lies where several tectonic plates meet, so plate movement has built mountain ranges and formed many volcanoes. This best matches choice A, “by creating many mountains and volcanoes.” Volcanic ash can also enrich soil, but that is an effect of volcanic activity rather than the main geographic change asked about.
