Which option gives a balanced relation between population growth and resource pressure?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Growth can increase pressure, but the effect depends on resource availability and management

The correct answer is A: population growth can increase resource pressure, but the actual effect depends on resource availability and management. More people usually require more water, food, energy, land, housing and public services. Therefore demand may rise as population grows. However, the result is not identical everywhere. A place with adequate resources, efficient technology, fair distribution, conservation and careful planning may meet increased demand more successfully. Poor management, waste or limited supplies can make pressure more serious. Choice B is incorrect because population growth cannot make finite resources unlimited. Choice C is too extreme: growth may increase pressure, but resources do not necessarily disappear immediately, and renewable resources can be managed. Choice D is incorrect because population size affects demand for resources, although other factors also matter. Memory cue: population affects demand; availability and management affect the level of pressure.
