Why should urbanisation be understood separately in population growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because natural increase and migration together create urban growth

The correct answer is A. Urban population growth can occur through natural increase and migration. Natural increase means births are greater than deaths among people living in the city. Migration adds another component when people move from villages or other towns to urban areas for work, education, business or services. Therefore, a city may grow quickly even when its birth rate is not unusually high, because many newcomers are arriving. Studying urbanisation separately helps planners understand housing demand, transport, sanitation, water supply, schools and employment. Option A is correct because it identifies both major processes. B is wrong because births do occur in cities. C is wrong because rural and urban areas are connected through migration, markets and services. D is wrong because urbanisation is a demographic and settlement process, not rainfall. Memory cue: urban growth equals natural increase plus net migration, though the size of each component can differ.
