Solution

Dear Student,

Resources are an essential part of human life, be it land, mineral or water resource. There are various factors like geographical, climatic and natural factors that affect the distribution of these resources, meaning while some areas may be abundant with one particular resource, others may face a shortage of it. This also creates economic differences in different regions and affects their overall development. Most regions that lack any resource remain economically backward. This is what uneven distribution of resources means.
Human factors like the amount of access and use of these resources create a further divide between the rich and poor as some groups of people use resources indiscriminately.
