Question

question 3
which term describes low land that has been drained of water and is surrounded by dikes?
○ reclaimed
○ irrigated
○ polder
○ pond

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• "Reclaimed" refers to land reclamation in a general sense but not the specific term for drained low land with dikes.
• "Irrigated" means supplying water for farming, not draining.
• "Polder" is defined as low - lying land that has been drained (often with dikes to keep water out) for use, matching the description.
• "Pond" is a small body of water, not drained land.

Answer:

C. Polder
