Aperson becomes the leader of a democracy by a. taking power by force. b. being elected by popular vote. c. being the first-born child of the previous leader. d. receiving votes from the peoples' representatives.

Tricky question because there are different types of democracy like direct (popular vote), indirect (elected representatives), etc. I think the best answer would be B though.

Urban growth invariably feeds increased commercialization and industrialization. it requires continually expanding land areas. when urbanization rates are high, and countries do not have the institutional and managerial capacities or economic wherewithal to manage such rapid growths, they exert intense pressure on the types and nature of the resulting settlements. they contribute to the development of overcrowded slums and shanty towns without adequate essential services and necessary infrastructure.-by asit k. biswas and cecilia tortajada
