Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 5.69 Read Maps and Data Sets about Water Resources skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
A county must choose a first action. Data show city leaks waste 18% of treated water, groundwater levels have fallen 1.5 m in two years, and the main reservoir already fills well each winter. Which action should be done first?
Abuild a new reservoir before fixing waste
Bignore the data until next year
Cpump more groundwater right away
Drepair city leaks
Solution & Explanation:Fixing leaks saves a large amount of water immediately, while groundwater is already declining and the reservoir already refills well.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
Which pair of data displays would best support a report about where Earth's freshwater is stored and how one town uses its water?
Aa weather vane and a thermometer
Ba road atlas and a lunch menu
Ca pie chart of freshwater reservoirs and a bar graph of town water uses
Da single photo and a stopwatch
Solution & Explanation:The pie chart can show where freshwater is stored, and the bar graph can compare the town's different water uses.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Over 5 years, population rose from 8,000 to 11,000, water use rose from 40 units to 58 units, and stream biodiversity score fell from 18 to 11. Which statement is best supported?
ABiodiversity scores are unrelated to water use in every case.
BAs human water use increased, stream biodiversity decreased, so better water management may be needed.
CMore people always improve stream biodiversity.
DPopulation growth proves the stream became deeper every year.
Solution & Explanation:The data show rising population and water use along with a falling biodiversity score, which suggests a need for better management.
