Answer 1

People in these countries will live in poverty. There will be an increase in demand for access to basic goods and services.

Answer 2

The correct answers are C. There will be an increase in demand for access to basic goods and services and D. More people are going to be living in poverty.

Step-by-step explanation:

The term "developing country" is used to label countries that have common features such as high levels of poverty, issues in health services and education, high levels of illiteracy and also difficulties in the economy which makes these countries vulnerable and incapable from developing a strong economy and improve conditions for people. Additionally, the issues previously mentioned increase as population growths. Because of this, a population growth in developing countries will lead to an increase in demand for access to basic goods and services, because the economy will remain in the same state but there would be more people looking for jobs, and also, this situation will lead to more poverty as social conditions would not improve with population growth.
