Which resource may come under greater pressure due to rapid population growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Water and food

Rapid population growth means that more people need essential goods and services. Demand can rise for food, drinking water, housing, energy, schools, medical care, and employment. If supply does not grow at a similar pace, these resources may come under pressure.

Water and food are basic resources required by every population, so they are directly affected by population increase. Latitude, longitude, and time zones are geographical reference concepts, not consumable resources whose supply is reduced by having more people. Therefore option A is correct. The question asks which resource may face greater pressure, not which one is the only affected resource.
