What is one major physical reason for uneven population distribution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Availability of water

Population is not spread evenly over the Earth because physical conditions differ from place to place. People generally need reliable water for drinking, household use, farming, animals, and many economic activities. Areas near rivers, lakes, or dependable groundwater can therefore support larger settlements than places where water is scarce. Water is not the only factor; relief, climate, soil, transport, and jobs also matter, but it is a major natural factor.

Option B is correct because availability of water strongly influences where people can live and work. The other options are not physical causes of population distribution: a television programme, mobile colour, and game time do not determine the natural suitability of a region. The question asks for a physical reason, so water availability fits both the meaning and the geographic context.
