Question

"The settlements of the tribals are temporary. One disadvantage of this kind of settlement is that it is difficult to get several facilities like electricity and tap water. What do you think is an advantage of this kind of settlement? "

• A. Hospitals and schools are easily accessible.
• B. There are industries in the vicinity to provide employment.
• C. It is easier to move the settlement when natural disasters or epidemics strike.
• D. These settlements can use their customs to predict and change several events in the future.

Answer 1

The correct option is C It is easier to move the settlement when natural disasters or epidemics strike.

These settlements are not permanent and several facilities are not readily available to them. But on the plus side, if there is an epidemic or a natural disaster in the region, the tribals could just abandon the settlement and move somewhere else.
