    The correct answer is: "The construction of a road through a mountain pass".

    There are six essential elements of geography, which are the following:

    World in spatial t erms Places & region s Physical Systems Human Systems Environment & Society Uses of Geography

    Element nº 5 is denominated 'Environment and Society" and it is referred to the manner in which humans modify the environment and viceversa. There are good, bad and neutral effects. For example, pollution would be a negative one.

    Therefore, the answer must be the third option, as it describes a human modification of a natural environment.

    Options 1 and 4 describe natural facts, not man-made. The second options describes a manner is which humans benefit from solar power but does not directly refer to a modification of the natural environment.
