If population growth is slow but urbanisation is rapid in an area, what should be understood?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Internal movement can increase urban population

The correct answer is A: internal movement can increase the population of towns and cities. Total population growth and the distribution of people are different ideas. Total growth depends on births, deaths, immigration and emigration. Urbanisation describes the increasing share or number of people living in urban places. If people move from villages to cities, the urban population can rise rapidly even when the population of the whole area grows slowly. Option A is correct because rural-to-urban migration changes where people live. Option B is wrong because urbanisation is closely connected with population distribution and migration. Option C is wrong because slow growth does not prove that the total population is declining. Option D is wrong because a low or zero birth rate is not necessary for rapid urbanisation; migration alone may cause it. Memory cue: growth asks “how many people?”, while urbanisation asks “where do they live?”
