The correct response is **fresh water**.
Direct ecosystem services are those that provide direct benefits to humans, such as fresh water, which is essential for drinking, irrigation, and sanitation. Photosynthesis and biodiversity are important ecological processes and components, but they do not directly serve human needs in the same immediate way that fresh water does. Land development is not considered an ecosystem service.
