Which among the following does not explain the law of urbanization ?

  • A.Push and Pull factors
  • B.Dispersal and Segregation
  • C.Distance-Decay function
  • D.Laws of gravity

Answer: B

The official key picks dispersal and segregation as the item that does not explain the law of urbanization.

Push and pull factors explain why people move to towns, distance-decay explains how the flow of migrants falls with distance, and the laws of gravity apply the gravity idea to movement between places. These are used to explain the law or pattern of urbanization.

Dispersal and segregation are processes of the spatial arrangement of groups inside a city, in urban ecology, and not an explanation of how and why urbanization occurs, so the key names it as the exception.
