“One thing that is poorly understood is population growth in Africa,” says William Cobbett, director of Cities Alliance . “It is thought that populations are growing mainly because of urban migration. That’s not correct. Across the continent, the bulk of population growth comes from natural population growth. Undesa figures from 1950-2050 show that in the case of Uganda – the outlier – its population in one century will multiply 20 times. That has never happened in human history.” Tanzania will grow 18 times and Nigeria 10.5.
“Most local authorities don’t have the capacity to deal with this, so there is no forward planning to make provisions for this population growth, which we know is going to happen.”
His organisation is trying to combat the mindset that you can’t plan for increased slum population, by supporting the creation of municipal development forums in a number of Ugandan cities. These are structured discussions where the local authority, local private sector companies and slum dwellers meet and deliberate about the future of the city.
Having the capacity to plan for future slum populations isn’t just a problem limited to Africa though.

Answer:

he larger the crystals and the more mafic the composition

Temperature at which minerals crystallize can determine the nature of composition of the rock and the crystal sizes.

  • When a magma crystallizes at high temperature, the mineral grains have enough time to aggregate around a nuclei.

  • Mafic minerals are know to crystallize at high temperatures.

Chemical weathering may affect farming activities . Give reason
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Chemical weathering changes the soil pH and affects the crops that grow on them

Explanation:

Chemical weathering refers to the breaking down of rocks through chemical reactions.

Whenever rocks which are chemically active come in contact with acidic rain, they react to form new compounds. These new compounds formed usually have different properties from their parent rocks.

As a result of chemical weathering, changes in the soil properties can occur such as its pH. These changes will affect the nutrients which can be found in them, thus affecting farming practices on such soil.
