Which option is a human reason for urban population growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Attraction of employment, education and healthcare facilities

Correct answer: A. Cities often attract people because they provide more varied employment, educational institutions, hospitals and other services. These are human or socio-economic pull factors. People may move from villages or smaller settlements to towns and cities, or an existing urban area may grow as its opportunities expand. Option A is correct because it identifies services and opportunities that influence human settlement and migration. B, C and D are generally physical conditions that can make settlement more difficult, not human reasons that attract urban population. A steep slope can limit construction and transport; an extremely arid climate and lasting water scarcity can also discourage settlement. They should not be treated as universal rules, but they do not fit the intended urban pull factor. Memory cue: jobs and services pull people towards cities.
