Which sentence from the text best shows the author's intent to describe how both human and

natural factors contribute to drought?

Australia and Indonesia,"

conditions can get mighty dry in the American West."
C “Although ocean temperatures may be an important factor in starting a drought, people
are making the problem of water shortages much worse."
D "As more people move in, the demand for water continues to grow-even as the supply
of water rapidly dwindles."

Answer: C! DON’T GET CONFUSED!!

Step-by-step explanation:

You can search it on quizzes to find it, but I’ll explain. The question is asking for both HUMAN and NATURAL FACTORS! A and B, talk about natural factors only. D only talks about the people. C however, includes ideas of how both humans and natural factors contribute to drought.
