WAEC - Economics (2014 - No. 31)
Economic development may be hindered if there is
a high pool of skilled labour
a high rate of economic growth
political stability
rapid population growth
Forklaring
Limited resources and a larger population puts pressures on the resources that do exist. More people means more mouths to feed, more health care and education services to provide, and so forth. So, population can be a mixed bag.
