Which statement concerning the influence of geography on Japan is most accurate? (1) Widespread mineral deposits led Japan to industrialize before England. (2) The lack of natural barriers made it easy to conquer Japan. (3) Large tracts of arable land made Japan a leading agricultural exporter. (4) Japan’s location allowed selective borrowing from China.

Sagot :

Well, number one is impossible. Great Britain was the first country to industrialize; they started the Industrial Revolution in 1780, with it taking full force in 1840. Japan's industrialization happened with the Meiji Restoration, a full 30 years after the formal beginning of the British industrialization.
2) Literally no one ever conquered Japan. Ask the Mongols- they tried. twice. and failed. twice.
3)Japan only has 20% arable land, so that's not much. And even still, the only country they actually traded with until after their industrialization was the Netherlands.
4) Japan, only a couple hundred miles from China, borrowed many aspect of their culture, which explains why Buddhism played (and still does to an extent) a large role in Japanese society.
So #4 is your answer
