In which situation can environmental pressure from population change be higher?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When in-migration and natural increase rapidly expand a city

The correct answer is A. In-migration brings additional people into a city, while natural increase means births exceed deaths. When both processes rapidly expand the urban population, demand for land, housing, water, energy, transport, drainage and waste management can rise quickly. If planning and infrastructure do not keep pace, environmental pressure may become greater. A is correct because it combines two forces of rapid population increase. B describes stability and adequate services, so pressure is less likely to rise rapidly. C has no net natural increase and no migration. D describes a declining population, which generally creates less immediate population pressure, although environmental problems can still exist. Memory cue: rapid growth plus limited resources increases pressure.
