Which of the following is correct in respect of the concept of Possibilism?

All of the above.

The correct answer is Option 4: All of the above.

Possibilism is the geographical concept that human beings are not entirely controlled by nature but have the ability to modify and utilize natural resources to suit their needs.

Let’s analyze each option:

1️⃣ "Nature provides opportunities, and human beings make use of these." ✅

• Possibilism suggests that nature sets the stage, but humans have the freedom to choose how to use its resources (e.g., different regions use the same climate differently—deserts can have tourism or agriculture with irrigation).

2️⃣ "Slowly nature gets humanized and starts bearing the imprints of human endeavour." ✅

• As humans modify the environment, landscapes begin to reflect cultural, social, and technological influences (e.g., cities, dams, and farmland).

3️⃣ "People move from a state of necessity to a state of freedom. They create possibilities with the resources obtained from the environment." ✅

• Possibilism emphasizes that humans move beyond survival (necessity) and create new opportunities by innovating (e.g., agriculture in harsh climates using technology).
