Which is the BEST reason that explains why American cities exist where they do today?

People choose areas that are pleasing to the eye

Cities begin where suburban growth is well established.

Cities begin where there are easily obtainable resources available.

People choose areas where resources are limited and difficult to obtain.

the C) Cities begin where there are easily obtainable resources available.

Explanation:

Initially the pioneers were looking for a territory that had not previously been populated or cultivated by the descendants of European or American society, and therefore they entered to explore, many times the pioneers decided to settle in a territory that offered facilities to cultivate or exercise activities cattle, with proximity to rivers or lakes, vast and green plains, etc. It also happened that many times they settled in mineral exploitation sites (western case) where many settlements occurred in areas where gold or silver was thought to exist.

C) Cities begin where there are easily obtainable resources available.

Explanation:

Let's start by process of elimination.

Right off the bat, we can get rid of D - why would someone want to live somewhere difficult if there's tons of other places to live where life can be easier?

Living conditions are far more important than the natural beauty when it comes to settling, to we can knock A off too.

Now, we're left with two choices - where suburban growth is well-established, and where there are easily obtainable resources available.

The thing about suburbs is that they didn't really come around until cities did. I mean, it's in the name - sub (secondary) urban (city).

It's C. Tons of cities were established expressly for obtaining natural resources and because of convenience.
