In which situation can urban population rise while rural population declines?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rural to urban migration is rapid

Answer: D. Rural-to-urban migration transfers people from villages, the source area, to towns or cities, the destination area. If this movement is large and rapid, the urban population can increase while the rural population decreases, especially when natural increase does not fully offset the people leaving rural areas. Option A would add people to rural areas, so it would not explain a rural decline. Option B describes movement in the opposite direction and could increase rural population. Option C says births and deaths are equal but does not describe the movement needed to produce the contrasting change. Option D directly explains both results at once. Memory cue: source loses migrants and destination gains them; track both sides of the same movement.
