Question

Which of the following statement is incorrect?

• A. Water evaporates from plants, animals and oceans.
• B. Animals living in water are not harmed during the floods.
• C. Vegetation cannot thrive during droughts.
• D. Water available for human use is very limited during floods.

Answer 1

The correct option is B Animals living in water are not harmed during the floods.

Water evaporates from water bodies. In addition, plants and animals also lose water which then evaporates. Some extent of evaporation also occurs for groundwater.

Flood water is heavily polluted and unavailable for general use.

Animals living in water get displaced from their original habitat and many of them lose lives.

During droughts, vegetation reduces due to scarcity of water.
