Question
- A. Reduction in cultural diversity
- B. Increased demand for housing and services
- C. Decreased population growth
- D. Lower economic activity
Answer
The correct answer is Increased demand for housing and services.
Explanation
The correct option is Increased demand for housing and services. Increased demand for housing and services is correct because it directly matches the approved learning objective to use a UK city case study to explain location, importance, migration impacts, opportunities and challenges. This belongs to Urban issues and challenges within Section A: Urban issues and challenges, so the answer must stay focused on the geographical process, evidence, place, or impact named by the curriculum. The other options are weaker because they move away from Urban issues and challenges, reverse the geographical relationship, or make a broader claim than the objective supports.
Common mistake
Understanding Migration Impacts
Students often confuse the impacts of migration with general population growth, failing to specify how migration specifically affects a city's demographics and economy.
Focus on the unique aspects of migration, such as changes in workforce composition, cultural diversity, and economic contributions, rather than just overall population increases.
