Choice A. Environmental determinism is when the environment is what causes there to be changes in human actions or social developments

Environmental possibilism is when the human can still perform his or her human actions and believe that even though their environment can cause there to be a change in there human action, they can reverse that idea.

Spatial interaction is the movement and flow of involving human activity

Geomorphology is not even considered as an answer. It should be an eliminated answer choice
