Which can be included among the effects of population growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Increase in demand for resources

Answer: A, an increase in demand for resources. When population grows, more people generally need water, food, housing, energy, transport, education, and health services. Thus, pressure or demand on available resources can increase. This is a possible effect; the exact level depends on consumption, technology, distribution, and management. Option A is correct because it describes a logical social and environmental consequence of having more people. Option B is incorrect because population growth does not automatically change the names of rivers. Option C is incorrect because the age of mountains is not reduced simply by an increase in population. Option D is incorrect because soil colour does not necessarily change whenever population increases. Memory cue: more people usually mean greater demand for essential resources, although demand and actual use are not exactly the same.
