Answer:

D. the Great Plains

Step-by-step explanation:

The Great Plains is a high and wide plateau that extends east of the Rocky Mountains, on the American continent, and covers the Mexican state of Coahuila, the Americans of New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming, Montana, South Dakota and North Dakota. In Canada, they extend through the Canadian provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Throughout the region there are many farms dedicated to agriculture and livestock. It also has large deposits of oil and coal. Every 25 years or so, the region suffers droughts and devastating sandstorms. The Great Plains are the westernmost of North America, and extend eastward to the Appalachian plateau.
