In which condition can the effect of population growth appear more in a city and less in a village?

Correct answer: When rural-to-urban migration is high

Answer: A. Rural-to-urban migration means people move from villages to towns or cities, usually in search of work, education, services or other opportunities. The people who move are added to the city’s population and removed from the village’s population. Thus, even if the total population of the wider region changes only a little, the city may experience greater population pressure while the village may show slower growth or a decline. A is correct because it describes this spatial redistribution. B is wrong because a return to villages would increase village population and reduce city pressure. C is not the best answer because a lack of jobs would normally discourage migration to the city; it does not itself create the stated pattern. D is wrong because stopping migration would prevent this redistribution. Memory cue: migration changes where people live, not just how many people exist.
