Explanation / Answer

A)The U.S Mexico border across which most undocumented migrants cross is difficult to find in some remote areas

The number of Mexican immigrants living in the U.S. illegally has declined by more than 1 million since 2007. In 2014, 5.8 million unauthorised immigrants from Mexico lived in the U.S., down from a peak of 6.9 million in 2007. Despite the drop, Mexicans still make up about half of the nation’s 11.1 million unauthorised immigrants (52% in 2014).
