What are considered natural resources in a floodplain?

  1. Soils and buildings

  2. Nutrients and minerals

  3. Soils, nutrients, water quality and quantity, diversity in species of plants and animals

  4. Technology and infrastructure

The correct answer is: Soils, nutrients, water quality and quantity, diversity in species of plants and animals

Natural resources in a floodplain refer to the resources that are essential for the health and functioning of the ecosystem, including soils, nutrients, water quality and quantity, and diversity in species of plants and animals. Options A and D are incorrect because they do not refer to the natural resources in a floodplain, but rather man-made structures. Option B is also incorrect because it only mentions nutrients and minerals, but not the other important resources in a floodplain.
