How do rural water concerns differ between dry areas and areas with heavy
rainfall?
A. Dams for flood control are the biggest concern in dry areas, while
hydroelectric dams are a bigger concern in rainy areas.
B. Fishing is the biggest concern in dry areas, while swimming and
boating are bigger concerns in rainy areas.
C. Draining marshes is the biggest concern in dry areas, while
irrigation is a bigger concern in rainy areas.
D. Conserving water is the biggest concern in dry areas, while runoff
is a bigger concern in rainy areas.
In dry areas, there is little to no water, so water conservation is of the utmost importance. In rainy areas, however, excess water can turn into flooding, which is why runoff is a much greater concern.
