If the population of a constituency increases greatly but demarcation remains old, what effect may occur on representation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The balance of representation may be disturbed

Direct answer: A, the balance of representation may be disturbed. Demarcation helps distribute people among constituencies so that representation is reasonably balanced. If one constituency grows much more populous while its boundaries remain unchanged, one elected representative may serve many more people than representatives in smaller constituencies. This can create unequal representational weight and make it harder to respond to citizens' needs. Option A is correct because it identifies the likely democratic and administrative effect. Option B is wrong because voting age is fixed by law and does not automatically change when population changes. Option C is wrong because a manifesto is a set of political promises and is not ended by population growth. Option D is wrong because population growth alone does not invalidate voter identity documents. Memory cue: population changes may require reviewing boundaries so representation remains balanced.
