Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 9.23 Population Distribution, Density, and Migration skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
Use the infographic shown for Country DD. Most people live in a narrow coastal strip, while the interior plateau is sparsely settled. The population pyramid for major cities shows many adults ages 20-34, and rural districts are losing that same age group. Which conclusion is best supported?
AEconomic opportunities are concentrating people in coastal cities, raising urban service pressure while leaving rural areas older
BFertility is highest on the plateau because no one is moving
CPopulation density is uniform across the whole country
DMigration is no longer affecting settlement patterns
Solution & Explanation:The evidence points to uneven distribution, rural-to-urban migration, and different consequences for sending and receiving regions.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
A stationary population pyramid guarantees that a country has zero net migration.
ATrue
BFalse
Solution & Explanation:A balanced-looking pyramid does not rule out immigration or emigration; migration can still reshape the population.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Which long-term strategy is most likely to reduce hazard-driven forced migration from flood-prone coasts?
AInvest in resilient infrastructure, early warning systems, and safer land-use planning
BIgnore coastal risk and expand settlement in the most exposed zones
CCut disaster preparedness budgets to reduce costs
DRely only on emergency camps after every flood
Solution & Explanation:Reducing vulnerability at the source can lower the need for repeated forced displacement.
