Answer 1

Answer:

All statements are correct to a certain point.

Explanation:

The first statement states: “According to statistical data, urbanization occurs in the country due to the urban population being higher than the rural population growth”. Urbanization refers to the increasing number of people that starts living in the urban areas. As people kept moving toward the urban areas, urbanization started to grow. The second statement states: “The highest rate of urbanization occurred in the Southeast region, where there are the most industrialized states: São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro”. The Southeast region concentrated most of the country’s industries, and by consequence, there was a major migratory flow. With the migratory flow the Southeast became the region with the highest urbanization rate. The third statement states: “The higher the urbanization index in Brazil, the higher the rural exodus index”. The urbanization process in Brazil began with the industrialization, which is one of the main factors for the population flow. People started moving from the rural areas to the urban areas. This movement was called the rural exodus.
