Which option correctly relates population growth and food security?

Correct answer: Growing population increases food demand, so production and distribution planning are needed

The direct answer is A. Food security means that people can regularly obtain enough safe and nutritious food. When population increases, the number of people needing food also increases, so total demand generally rises. Planners must consider food production, irrigation and other inputs, storage, transport, markets, and fair distribution. More production alone is not sufficient if food cannot reach people who need it. Option A is correct because it links population size with demand and then with planning for supply and distribution. Option B is wrong because population growth does not remove the need for food; it normally increases it. Option C is wrong because the number of people is an important part of food demand, although income, technology, climate, and distribution also matter. Option D is meaningless and does not describe a demographic or food-security process. Memory cue: more people usually means more meals, so supply and access must be planned together.
