Let’s think about what a watershed is, based on the text in the image.
The text says:
“A watershed is an area of land that drains into a river, stream or lake. It includes everything within its borders — trees, soil, water, air, cars, houses, farms, and even people, their stories and traditions.”
It also says:
“No matter where you are and how much or how little water is nearby, you are in a watershed.”
And then it asks:
“What are you always in, no matter where you are standing?”
So, if you’re *always* in one — whether you’re near a river, in a city, in a forest, or even in a desert — the answer must be something that covers every place on Earth.
From the definition, we learn that
every piece of land is part of some watershed. Even if there’s no visible water nearby, rainwater still flows somewhere — maybe underground, maybe to a distant river — so you’re still inside a watershed.
That means no matter where you stand, you’re standing in a watershed.
Final Answer:
a watershed
