Question

In the context of migration, select the wrongly matched pairs from the following:

• A. Pull factor - Employment opportunities
• B. Pull factor - Frequent natural disasters
• C. Push factor - Better health care facilities
• D. Push factor - Civil war

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C)

The correct options are
B Pull factor - Frequent natural disasters
C Push factor - Better health care facilities

Pull factors are the features of a region that attract people to that region. Frequent natural disasters make lives difficult, due to which it cannot be considered as a pull factor. Push factors force people out of a region. Therefore, civil wars, natural disasters, and unemployment are push factors, whereas better healthcare and employment opportunities are pull factors.
