Model Answer

(b) Heavy and bulky goods

Waterways are most suitable for carrying heavy and bulky goods as they are the cheapest and a fuel-efficient, environment-friendly mode of transport.

Source: Waterways, Chapter 7

Explanation

The textbook explicitly states: "They are most suitable for carrying heavy and bulky goods." Examiners expect students to recall this direct line. Perishable/fragile goods need faster transport (roadways/airways); waterways are slow but economical for heavy cargo.
