Solution

The correct option is A slanting roofs
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 is a regular affair, homes are built on a raised platform. Thick mud walls are common in regions with hot climate.
