If population growth is rapid but services are increasing slowly, what will happen?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Pressure on services will increase

The direct answer is A: pressure on services will increase. Services include schools, hospitals, drinking water, sanitation, housing, transport and electricity. When population grows rapidly, more people need these facilities. If facilities expand slowly, the same limited capacity must serve more users, so demand may exceed supply. This can cause overcrowding, longer queues, shortages, heavier workloads and reduced quality. Option A is correct because rapid growth raises demand while slow expansion limits supply. Option B is wrong because more people do not eliminate the need for services; they usually increase it. Option C is wrong because inadequate services may create hardship, but they do not automatically make population decline. Option D is wrong because measuring area has no necessary connection with service pressure. Memory cue: fast population growth plus slow services equals rising pressure.
