Georgia is not as mountainous as Colorado. This means Georgia’s climate is usually

Answer
A
better than Colorado’s.
B
cooler than Colorado’s.
C
drier than Colorado’s.
D
warmer than Colorado’s.

Explanation

Mountainous areas are often cooler because temperatures generally decrease as elevation increases. Since Georgia is less mountainous than Colorado, its elevations are usually lower, so Georgia’s climate is usually warmer than Colorado’s. “Better” is subjective, and being less mountainous does not by itself mean a place is drier.
