Correct Answer: Option n
Explanation:
(a) Four factors that determine population distribution are;
(i) Climate: temperature extremes, i.e too high and too low temperature lead to sparse population while moderate temperature leads to dense population
(ii) Relief; Low relief leads to dense population while rugged relief leads to sparse population
(iii) Minerals: Presence of minerals leads to high population while absence of minerals leads to low population
(iv) Soil: Fertile soil attracts dense population while poor soils attract low population
(b) Two types of population movement are:
(i) Rural-Urban Movement
(ii) Urban-Rural Movement
(c) Four problems of Rural-Urban migration
(i) Population pressure on land
(ii) Congestion (traffic, housing)
(iii) Increase in crime wave
(iv) Unemployment
