The map shows past immigration to the United States, which together with Canada and Mexico, makes up a major portion of North America. Based on the map, how does emigration from Canada to the US differ from emigration from Japan or China to the US?
Answer
A
Emigration from Canada to the US is interregional rather than intraregional.
B
Emigration from Canada to the US is intraregional rather than interregional.
C
Emigration from Canada to the US is external rather than internal.
D
Emigration from Canada to the US is internal rather than external.
Explanation
Canada and the United States are both in North America, so migration from Canada to the US is intraregional: it occurs within the same world region. Japan and China are in Asia, so migration from either country to the US is interregional, crossing from one world region to another. Thus, the correct choice is “Emigration from Canada to the US is intraregional rather than interregional.”
