Answer:

A. The rest of the country is mountainous.

Explanation:

Japan being an Island and mountainous region, did not have many flat regions. The scarcity of land has forced people in Japan to live near the coastal areas. Three fourth of the national land is mountainous, which is not good for farming. Japanese relied on the sea for many aspects of daily life staring with fishing, trading (import of resources and food).
