Which of the following changes would most likely increase the rate at which a resource is consumed?
A-increased conservation of the resource
B-decreased population
C-increased population
D-decrease desire for the resource

Respuesta :

Increased population results to increased rate at which resources are consumed. This is because,   more resources will be required to support   population growth and therefore depletion of resources tend to be more rampant when population becomes high. This is the reason behind population control so as to ensure resources are not fully depleted  due to increase in  population

The increase of population will likely to increase the rate at a resource to consume.

Further explanation

A population is a group of individuals of the same species that live in a particular area or the number of people living in the same area, for example, a city population means the number of people living in that city.

Population growth is the change in a population over time. It can be increasing or decreasing, depend on some factors, such as migration, birth rate, and mortality rate.

The population's growth rate increase when the birth rate is higher than the death rate, or the emigration is lower than the immigration. Increasing population means increasing human consumption and demand for many resources such as food production and consumption, meat production, food varieties, and infrastructure development. Bad management and distribution of these resources will lead to natural destruction and increase the amount of pressure on the agriculture sector.
