The prompt presents a fill-in-the-blank sequence about industrial land in Australian cities and its uses, followed by a short instruction about continuing Question 16 and an overarching statement on urban sustainability. Below I walk through the blanks in order and discuss how the provided answer (construction) fits, along with why alternative interpretations would be less appropriate.

25. ___
- This position in the sentence says the industrial land is affected by something, which typically refers to regulatory or planning factors. Common terms here include planning controls, zoning restrictions, land-use policies, or planning regulations. Any of these would describe external constraints that limit what can be done with industrial land. Choosing a term like planning controls or zoning restrictions would make sense because such controls often restrict residential redevelopment on land zoned for industry, influencing subsequent sentences.

26. ___ rather than homes
- The clause indicates that the land, if constrained or repurposed, is more suitable for a use other than housing. The natural continuation is a form of industrial activity or uses appropriate to the site’s infrastructure and location. Likely candidates are industrial uses, manufacturing, or light industrial activity. The reader is guided to think about non-residential, productive uses rather than residential ones.

27. ___ businesses to produce goods
- This blank seems to describe a type of business sector or activity that would be encouraged or needed as a consequence of the previous line. Given the context about industrial land and the need to repurpose space for production, the term manufacturing or light manufacturing is a logical fit. It signals a shift toward production-based activity rather than service-oriented or consumer-facing ventures.

28. Answer Question 16[input] should continue in cities, as it is needed to adapt existing buildings for future use.
- The instruction mentions adapting existing buildings for future use, which aligns with urban redevelopment and flexible reuse. The idea here is to maintain continuity with Question 16 by continuing a practice (in this case, perhaps planning or policy levers) that supports repurposing buildings for ongoing or future needs. The phrasing suggests a concept like 'retrofitting,' 'adaptation,' or 'reuse' would fit conceptually, tying into the idea of making built form more versatile for long-term sustainability.

29. ___ in cities is necessary for greater sustainability.
- The provided answer, construction, fits neatly here. Increasing construction in cities can support redevelopment, infill growth, and the conversion of underused spaces into productive uses, which aligns with sustainability goals like reducing sprawl, lowering transport emissions, and maximizing existing infrastructure. Saying 'construction' in cities emphasizes rapid, targeted building activity to repurpose land and adapt buildings for new uses in a sustainable urban fabric.

Why the given answer (construction) is well-aligned with the overall theme:
- The passage centers on reusing or repurposing industrial land for housing or other productive uses, all within a sustainability framework. Construction in an urban context is a primary vehicle for such transformation: it enables infill development, retrofit of existing structures, and the creation of new, efficient spaces that can support adaptable uses over time.
- The sustainability angle often relies on higher-density, well-planned construction in cities to reduce sprawl and to make use of existing infrastructure, aligning with the idea of future-proofing urban areas through deliberate building activity.

Why other plausible interpretations might be less fitting (in brief):
- If 25 were 'planning controls' or 'zoning restrictions,' the sequence would emphasize regulatory barriers more than the practical redevelopment outcome; while accurate, it doesn’t directly name the productive activity emphasized later unless tied to construction.
- If 26 referred to 'industrial uses' or 'manufacturing' instead of a housing-redevelopment context, the flow would be more about what land should be used for, but it would still lead into the manufacturing-oriented 27 and an urban adaptation focus in 28, making the overall chain plausible but less directly connected to the sustainability-driven construction narrative highlighted in 29.
- If 27 were 'services' or 'retailing,' the emphasis would shift away from production and goods, reducing coherence with the idea of adapting buildings for future use and the sustainable infill objective implied by 29.

In summary, the sequence builds a logic where regulatory factors influence land use, directing it toward non-residential, productive uses, with a focus on adapting existing buildings and increasing targeted construction in cities to support sustainability. The supplied answer construction best captures the intended culmination of that reasoning in line with urban redevelopment and sustainability goals.
