When can population growth increase rural-to-urban migration?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When pressure on rural land rises and cities attract people with jobs

Correct answer: A, when pressure on rural land rises and cities attract people with jobs. Migration often results from a combination of push and pull factors. Rapid population growth in rural areas can increase pressure on farmland, housing, water, and available work. These are push factors because they encourage people to leave. At the same time, cities may offer jobs, education, healthcare, transport, or other opportunities; these are pull factors because they attract people. Option A correctly combines both sides. Option B is wrong because adequate village employment reduces the pressure to leave. Option C is wrong because a lack of urban opportunities weakens the pull factor. Option D is wrong because migration requires some motivation or condition. Population growth does not automatically cause migration everywhere; its effect depends on livelihoods, services, and opportunities. Memory cue: rural pressure pushes, urban opportunity pulls.
