The region around 2b has far fewer craters than the region around 2c) The crater floor at 2a is also flat and smooth, without many smaller craters on it. Why are regions 2a and 2b so smooth?

A) Few small craters ever formed in these regions.
B) Erosion erased craters that once existed in these regions.
C) Lava flows covered craters that once existed in these regions.
