What does the digital divide represent in human geography?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Unequal access to digital tools and skills

The digital divide is the gap between people, households, or regions that can access and effectively use digital technologies and those that cannot. It includes differences in device ownership, reliable connectivity, affordability, electricity, digital literacy, language support, accessibility, and the ability to use online services meaningfully. Option B is correct because it includes both tools and skills. Counting mobile phones alone may hide shared or basic devices, while internet speed is only one technical feature. Income, education, gender, age, infrastructure, and rural or urban location can all widen this divide.
