For Question 4:

• St. Petersburg is not the capital of Russia.
• Moscow is the capital of Russia, located in the European heartland, and St. Basil's Cathedral is in Moscow.
• Moscow is not on the Asian side of Russia.
• Vladivostok is not the capital of Russia.

For Question 5:

• Siberia's mountainous terrain is not the main reason for uneven population distribution.
• Siberia does not have extensive good farmland compared to other regions.
• Siberia does not have big trading cities (ports) that would lead to even population distribution.
