7- What are the effects of rapid population growth on economic development?
Retards Development: Due to rapidly growing population, a greater percentage of scarce resource is diverted to meet the basic consumption needs messes. Therefore, little capital is saved for investment
Social Problem: Rapidly growing population creates economic and social problems such as housing and education
Low Per Capita Income: As the population grows, it reduces per capital income of the people.
Low Living Standard: The rapidly growing population decreases per capita income and service which results in a rise of general price level and therefore living standard of people remains very low.
Pressure on Land: Number of landless workers increases. Problems of Low productivity and food shortage in the country
Social Infrastructure: The rapidly increasing population of a country adds to the burden on the social infrastructure of the country. Therefore, it becomes difficult for the government to provide suitable facilities of education, health, housing water, power, and transport

12- Explain why it is difficult for Pakistan to increase the life expectancy of people.
Health facilities inadequate for Pakistan, Difficult access to health care services, isolated villages, poor drinking water starvation, unhygienic living, and high infant mortality rates.
13- Explain why it is difficult for Pakistan to lower its natural population increase
More children mean more earning hands, parents cannot send their children to school due to prevailing poverty, illiterate people do not realize the importance of education, women illiteracy especially in rural areas due to social and cultural obstacles, large families are usually considered a pride, early marriage, Religious belief that Allah provides Rizq to all, Family planning considered against Islamic practices, Strong desires for male child, decline in death rate due to better medical facilities.
14- Explain why it is difficult for Pakistan to provide for such a large proportion of young people?
Lack of funds for education and health care Pakistan not sufficient in agricultural products like wheat. Pakistan then needs to import wheat causing extra burden on economy, Less people in the working population and more dependents, Over population is responsible for poverty and low standard of living,
15- Explain the causes of low literacy rate in Pakistan
Poverty this parents cannot afford child’s education, Population Expansion, Feudal lords and Wadera System, Low allocation of Budgets, Male dominated society causes low literacy, Larger gap between lower and upper class. Agriculture economy leads to low literacy people tend to fulfil basic necessities and do not emphasize on education. Lack of schools in rural areas, Schools lack basic facilities such as rooms, furniture, toilets, and drinking water
16- Explain why literacy is an important factor which may influence the use of natural resources in the rural areas of Pakistan.
Literacy can help farmer to use better farming techniques to increase the agricultural production, better methods in rearing of livestock, cottage industries develop using the local raw material. Thus, literacy may influence the use of natural resources in rural areas of Pakistan and will increase farmer’s income
