Answer to Problem 3CEF

If all the values are equal, then the population growth will increase due to the increase in the demand of the minerals obtained after mining. This will lead to the decrease in population of people ahead as some specific regions will be allotted for mining leading to the shifting of the population to new places.

Explanation of Solution

Mining is used for the extraction of minerals, ores and heavy metals used for a variety of purposes like utensils, coins and manufacturing of machines.

There will be a decrease in the population of the women, men and children in the region in which mining is taking place as these people will be shifted to other regions where better infrastructure and healthcare facilities will be available. The increase in the population of the people leads to the depletion of the resources and minerals. This causes an increase in the manufacturing and mining of metals and ores from the areas defined in a geographical region.
