Question 2

Borders only Portugal on Iberian Peninsula

Spain is located on the Iberian Peninsula and shares its land border exclusively with Portugal, making this statement accurate in describing its geography.

A) Southern Hemisphere location

This option is incorrect as Spain is situated in the Northern Hemisphere. Its geographical coordinates place it well above the equator, unlike countries located in the Southern Hemisphere.

B) Borders only Portugal on Iberian Peninsula

This statement is correct. Spain occupies the majority of the Iberian Peninsula, which it shares solely with Portugal, thus accurately reflecting its geographical boundaries.

C) Borders Ural Mountains

This choice is incorrect. The Ural Mountains are located in Russia, far from Spain, which has no geographical connection to this mountain range.

D) Among Europe’s smallest countries

This option is also incorrect. Spain is one of the larger countries in Europe by land area, ranking as the fourth largest, and therefore cannot be considered among the smallest.

Conclusion

The correct answer, "Borders only Portugal on Iberian Peninsula," accurately captures Spain's geographical relationship with its neighboring country. All other options fail to correctly represent Spain's location, either by misidentifying its hemisphere, its borders, or its relative size in Europe.
