In which situation do population growth and migration together increase pressure in a metropolis?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Natural increase occurs through births and people also come from outside

The direct answer is A. Population change has more than one component. Natural increase is the difference between births and deaths. Migration changes population when people enter or leave an area. In A, births add people through natural increase, and people arriving from outside add further residents through in-migration. These two additions together increase the metropolis population and may raise demand for housing, transport, water, sanitation, schools, health care, and jobs. B is wrong because high deaths and out-migration both reduce population. C is wrong because it adds neither natural increase nor in-migration. D is wrong because an empty city has no growing resident population. A does not mean that every large city must face the same level of pressure; it identifies the population processes that increase the number of residents. Memory cue: births minus deaths plus arrivals produces upward pressure.
