If rapid population growth and low per-capita income exist together in an area, what pressure may appear?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Pressure on employment and living standards

Direct answer: Option A is correct. Per-capita income means average income available per person, so low per-capita income indicates limited economic resources relative to the number of people. If the population is also growing rapidly, the number of people seeking work and using housing, education, healthcare, food, water and transport can increase quickly. Unless jobs, productivity and public services expand sufficiently, competition for employment may rise and the average standard of living may come under pressure. Option A correctly states both major effects. Option B is wrong because rapid growth does not make resources infinite. Option C is wrong because growth means the population is increasing, not ending. Option D is wrong because people’s needs and demand do not become zero. The exact outcome can vary with planning and economic growth, but the stated combination creates a clear risk. Memory cue: low income per person plus fast growth means more needs but fewer resources per person.
