Which of the following is true of the Japanese islands?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The statement says that the Japanese islands are subject to violent earthquakes due to their nearness to the Asian and Pacific tectonic plates. This is true of Japan, which is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire, where earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are common. The other statements are not completely accurate. While Honshu does receive a significant amount of snow, the statement does not specify that it is over 200 inches. While Japan does have many mountains, the percentage of land used for farming is closer to 12%. While some of Japan's soil is poor due to volcanic activity, not all of its mountains are volcanic, and the soil in some areas is quite fertile. Finally, Honshu is the largest of the four main islands, not Kyushu.
