Solution

The correct option is B where water accumulates in rainy seasons
People build their homes according to the climatic conditions in their area. In places with heavy rainfall, people build homes with slanting roofs. If water accumulation in rainy seasons is a regular affair, homes are built on raised platforms or stilts. Thick mud walls are common in regions with hot climate.
