In a study by Mika R. Moran, Daniel A. Rodriguez, and colleagues, residents of Quito, Ecuador, and Bogotá, Colombia, were surveyed about parks in their cities. Of the 618 respondents from Quito, 82.9% indicated that they use the city's parks, and of the 1,121 respondents from Bogotá, 71.9% indicated using city parks. Given that the percentage of Quito respondents who reported living within a 10-minute walk of a park was much lower than that reported by Bogotá respondents, greater proximity alone can't explain the difference in park use.
The text makes which point about the difference between the proportions of Quito residents and Bogotá residents using parks?
It was much larger than the researchers conducting the study expected.
A
It could be due to inaccuracies in the survey results.
B
It was calculated using sources that predate the survey.
C
It is caused by something other than the parks' proximity to city residents.
D
