Solution

The correct option is C Urbanisation
  • Urbanization is a population shift from rural to urban areas, "the gradual increase in the proportion of people living in urban areas", and the ways in which each society adapts to the change.
  • It is predominantly the process by which towns and cities are formed and become larger as more people begin living and working in central areas
  • In future it is estimated 93% of urban growth will occur in developing nations,
  • This unprecedented movement of people is forecast to continue and intensify during the next few decades, mushrooming cities to sizes unthinkable only a century ago.
