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

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Growth can increase pressure but management changes the effect

The correct answer is A. Population growth usually increases demand for water, food, housing, energy, transport, and waste disposal. If these needs are met without planning, pressure on land, water, air, and other resources can increase. However, population size alone does not decide the final environmental effect. Good waste management, clean technology, efficient public transport, conservation, recycling, and careful use of resources can reduce the pressure. Therefore, the relationship is balanced: growth may raise pressure, but management can change how serious the effect becomes. Option A is correct because it includes both parts. B is wrong because growth does not automatically make pollution zero; poor planning may increase it. C is wrong because population and resource demand are related. D is wrong because environmental conditions depend on many physical and human factors, not only mountain height. Memory cue: more people may mean more demand, while better management can mean less damage.
