Among the regions listed, which is the largest geographic region?

• A. Appalachian Plateau
• B. Coastal Plain
• C. Blue Ridge
• D. Valley and Ridge

Answer: (B)

Size here means how much land the region covers. The Coastal Plain is a broad, flat area that stretches far inland from the coast, so it covers more land than the other regions. The Blue Ridge sits as a mountainous belt in the northeast, the Valley and Ridge includes long, narrow ridges and valleys, and the Appalachian Plateau is a smaller high-flat area. Because it spans a much larger area, the Coastal Plain is the largest geographic region among these options.
