Under which condition will population growth seriously affect food security?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When population grows rapidly and food production or distribution is weak

The direct answer is A: food security is most seriously threatened when population grows rapidly while food production or distribution is weak. Food security means that people can obtain enough safe and nutritious food. Rapid population growth increases the number of people who must be supplied. If farms, storage, transport, markets or distribution systems cannot expand or function properly, total food availability may not reach everyone, even when some food exists in the region. Option A combines increasing demand with a weak supply system, so it creates the greatest risk. Option B is wrong because production above demand generally reduces shortage pressure. Option C is less likely to create pressure because a declining population usually reduces demand, other conditions being equal. Option D is wrong because strong distribution helps food reach people. Food security also depends on access and affordability, but the question clearly identifies weak production or distribution as the risk. Memory cue: food security needs enough food and a reliable way to reach people.
