Cevap

The majority of the Australian population lives in large cities located on or near the coast.
The correct answer is that the majority of Australians live in large cities on or near the coast. This is because the coastal regions provide a more hospitable climate and the necessary infrastructure to support large populations compared to the dry interior.

Adım Adım Çözüm

Analyze the geographical constraints of the Australian continent.
Much of the interior is arid or semi-arid desert (the Outback), which is less suitable for large-scale urban development.
Climate and water availability are primary drivers of human settlement patterns.
2
Identify the locations of Australia's major capital cities.
Cities like Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide are all located on the coast.
These areas offer more temperate climates and access to trade and resources.

Determine the distribution of the population based on these observations.
The vast majority of people are concentrated in these urban coastal hubs.
Infrastructure and economic opportunities are focused in these highly urbanized coastal regions.
