Where does most of the world's population tend to settle? near mountain valleys wherever the herds move near bodies of water far from potential flood zones

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Right now people live typically in cities which are comparatively old, so the relevant question here is where did people choose to settle in the past.

In the past it was very important for people to live next to water sources- it was a source of drinking water, allowed defence and trade. So the correct answer is "near bodies of water"
Answer 2
Answer:

The world's population tends to settle most in the near bodies of water. Thus, the correct option is (C).

Around 90% of people on Earth are said to reside in the Northern Hemisphere. This is due to the fact that 6.57 billion of the world's 7.3 billion inhabitants reside north of the equator.

Too dry or rainy, too cold or hilly environments can limit humans in a number of ways. Three primary regions hold two-thirds of the world's population: East Asia (China), South Asia (India and Indonesia), and Europe, with the majority concentrated in East and South Asia.

Therefore, the correct option is "C".
