Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: The assertion is correct: Geographical location is necessary to define an area, as it determines its coordinates, climate, and resources, shaping its identity.
Step 2: The reason is incorrect: Geographical location significantly affects regional development by influencing climate, resource availability, trade routes, and economic activities (e.

inland deserts).
Since the reason is false, it cannot explain the assertion.
