Question

because mountains block winds coming from the oceans, much of the interior of southwest asia is:
full of lakes
fertile farmland
grassland
desert

Explanation:

The question is about the geography of Southwest Asia. When mountains block ocean winds, the interior gets little precipitation. Deserts form in arid regions with low rainfall. Lakes, fertile farmland, and grassland need more water, so the interior is desert.

Answer:

D. Desert (assuming options are labeled A - D as A. Full of lakes, B. Fertile farmland, C. Grassland, D. Desert)
