Question

Which of the following most significantly determines a community's access to potable water?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is B) the availability of money

Explanation:

Potable water can be described as the water which is safe to drink. Nowadays, with the rapid industrialization progress, it is important to process water so that it can be used for human consumption. The processing of water to make it clean enough requires money. The more money a community will have, the more machinery and plants it will be able to set up for the processing of water.  

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is b) the availability of money

Explanation:

Without money, a community's freshwater/potable sources could become depleted or contaminated without regulation. Any country or community with wealth can simply import enough potable water from other places to make up for that. The single most influential factor to a single community is money.
