How are minor us territories different from commonwealths or major territories such as guam? a. they don’t have a permanent civilian population. b. they don’t have any major industries or occupations. c. their population is low. d. they are far from the us mainland.

The correct answer is A. The difference between minor US territories and Commonwealths or major territories such as Guam is that minor territories don't have a permanent civilian population.

Explanation:

The minor US territories are named as United States Minor Outlying Islands, a term that comprises the small territories of Navassa in the Caribbean, and Wake, Baker, Howland, Johnston Atoll, Palmyra Atoll, Kingman Reef, Jarvis and the Midway Islands in the Pacific.

All these territories are considered together as a statistical group because, despite not being geographically close, they are territories without permanent civilian population. On the contrary, the only populations found in these territories belong to military and scientific groups, which are found only on two of these islands: Johnston Atoll and Wake Island.

In contrast, other unincorporated territories such as Guam, Puerto Rico or American Samoa have permanent populations, with large population centers and socially and politically organized. For example, Puerto Rico has a population of more than 3.6 million people, and its capital, San Juan, is one of the most economically and culturally important cities in the Caribbean.
