Answer to Question 1

The interior of North America is dominated by vast plains and prairies; the eastern seaboard consists of low-lying estuarine environments, bordered by the Appalachian Mountains to the west. The western portion of North America consists of high mountain ranges, plateaus, and coastal plains. Early settlement concentrated in the eastern coastal regions as part of the Atlantic trade networks; subsequently settlement moved westward, taking advantage of vast grasslands for agriculture.
