Why is the impact of a disaster not equal for all people in human geography?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because resources, housing, and preparedness differ

Disaster impact depends on the interaction of a hazard with exposure and vulnerability, not on the physical event alone. People differ in income, housing strength, location, health, age, mobility, access to warnings, transport, savings, insurance, and emergency services. Consequently, the same flood, earthquake, or cyclone can produce very different losses in different communities. Option A is correct because it identifies these differences in resources, living conditions, and preparedness. A hazard does not selectively choose victims, all places are not identical, and denying hazards is factually incorrect.
