Question

Physical factors affecting the regional development:

• A. Topography
• B. Climate
• C. Market
• D. Water supply

Hint:

Physical factors (e.g., topography, climate) are natural, while markets are human-driven economic factors.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Physical factors are natural features influencing regional development.
- (a) Topography: Terrain (e.g., plains, mountains) affects settlement and agriculture.
- (b) Climate: Weather patterns influence crop suitability and livability.
- (d) Water supply: Availability of water supports agriculture and habitation.

Step 2: Market (c) is incorrect, as it is an economic factor, not a physical one, related to trade and commerce.
