Explanation:
Reasons for low population density in mountain region:
1. Relief and landforms
Lowland plains, flat river valleys and deltas and volcanic areas with fertile soil tend to have high population densities. Mountainous areas with steep slopes and poor quality soil tend to have low population densities.
2. Weather and climate
Temperate areas which experience few extremes of weather and climate tend to be more attracted than areas which experience extremes.
3. Soil type and quality
Areas which have rich, fertile soils allowing successful agriculture tend to have higher population densities than areas which have poor quality soils have sparse populations.
4. Water supply
Water supply is essential for human survival and development and because of this areas which have sufficient water (but not too much) tend to have denser populations.
5. Raw materials/natural resources
Areas with a wealth of natural resources such as oil, coal or minerals may have higher population densities than areas which do not.
7. Natural threats
These may affect population density as people may try to avoid areas where pests, threatening animals and diseases are particular risks.
