What is the most likely effect when rapid population growth and limited resources exist together?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Pressure on resources will increase

Direct answer: A, pressure on resources will increase. Rapid population growth usually raises the need for food, drinking water, land, housing, energy, education, health care and employment. If the available resources are limited, more people are competing for or depending on the same supply. This can create shortages, higher use, environmental stress and pressure on public services, although the exact result depends on planning and technology. A is correct because it follows directly from rising demand and limited supply. B is wrong because population growth cannot make a finite resource unlimited. C is wrong because more people generally increase, rather than end, demand for goods and services. D is wrong because growth does not automatically cause a rapid decline; decline would require different demographic conditions. Memory cue: more people plus fixed supply means greater pressure, not more resources.
