Which of the following statements is true about water access in the middle east? a. access to coastal waters is not important to people. b. most countries depend on outside resources for water. c. water is available in large supplies in all countries. d. all countries have sources of renewable freshwater.

B. Most countries depend on outside resource for water

Explanation:

The Middle East is one of the driest regions in the world, being mostly covered by deserts and steppes. The water is lacking in most of this region. The Arabian Peninsula for example doesn't have a single stream or river that flows throughout whole of the year, while the other places only have few of them in total. Because of the lack of water in the region, it is heavily dependent on outside sources of water, so one of the most imported goods in the region is actually the water. Another method that is used is the desalination of water, but it is not the most practical method, nor it is cheap.

the answer is B i just took the test!
