Excessive use of river water can increase which problem?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Water shortage

A river is a limited water source. People use its water for homes, farms, industries, and other needs. If water is taken out faster than the river and rainfall can replace it, the amount of water available in the river and nearby areas may fall. This creates or worsens water shortage. Careful use and conservation help protect water for people, plants, animals, and future generations.

Option A is correct because excessive withdrawal directly reduces the water available for use. The other choices do not follow from excessive river-water use: it cannot always increase rainfall, dry up the entire sea, or melt mountains. The key idea is that overuse of a finite resource can cause scarcity, so the answer is water shortage.
