The main physical factor that would limit agriculture on the steep slopes of the Alps would be: Select one: a. climate b. soils c. relief d. none of the above

The correct option is A (climate)

Explanation:

Over the most recent 50 years, conventional Alpine cultivating changed drastically: remote cultivating areas were relinquished while the more ideal zones were strengthened.

This pattern has prompted a decline in biodiversity as species rich mountain pastures are either changed over into intensely prepared 'green deserts' or congested by backwoods.
