States that border Arizona include?

  1. California, New Mexico, and Utah

  2. New Mexico, Texas, and California

  3. Utah, Wyoming, and California

  4. Mexico, Utah, and California

The correct answer is: California, New Mexico, and Utah

The correct answer identifies the states that share a border with Arizona: California, New Mexico, and Utah. Arizona is located in the southwestern region of the United States and directly shares borders with these three states. To provide more clarity, California borders Arizona to the west, New Mexico is situated to the east, and Utah is located to the north of Arizona. Understanding the geographical relations between these states is crucial for grasping Arizona's position in the U.S. Some other options mentioned states that do not directly border Arizona. For example, Texas, while nearby, does not share a boundary with Arizona. Similarly, Wyoming is further north and east and has no direct border with Arizona. The mention of Mexico in the last option is relevant because Arizona does share a border with Mexico, but it does not fulfill the requirement of listing U.S. states specifically.
