Which option can be a cause of urban population growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Attraction of employment, education and health facilities

The correct answer is A. Employment, education and health facilities can attract people from villages and smaller towns to cities. This movement is migration, and the desirable opportunities act as pull factors. If many people move into cities, the urban population can grow, even when natural increase is not the only cause. Option B would usually reduce pressure to migrate to cities because better rural opportunities may encourage people to remain in rural areas. Option C describes people leaving cities, which tends to reduce urban population; it is an out-migration factor. Option D describes a fall in the birth rate, which generally reduces the contribution of natural increase rather than causing growth. Memory cue: city opportunities pull people in; movement out pushes urban numbers down.
