Answer : Option B
Explanation :
The urban population of the world is growing faster than Its rural population. This is mainly because of Rural-urban migration. Rural-urban migration is the movement of people from the countryside to the city. This causes two things to happen: 1. Urban growth - towns and cities are expanding, covering a greater area of land. 2. Urbanisation - an increasing proportion of people living in towns and cities.
