Solution
The world’s national resources are unevenly distributed because of differences in their physical makeup i.e. geology, relief soil, and climate.
- Geological structure: It determines the mineral resource base and topographical differences ensure diversity of crops and animals raised. Lowlands have greater agricultural potential. Mountains attract tourists and promote tourism.
- Mineral resources: They have unevenly distributed the world over. The availability of mineral resources provides the basis for industrial development.
- Climate: It influences the type of flora and fauna that can survive in a given region. It also ensures diversity in the range of various products, e.g. wool production can take place in cold regions, bananas, rubber, and cocoa can grow in tropical regions.
