Question 18 • World Geography Studies

Which aspect of chain migration would be considered a pull factor?

Answer
A
Family members in other countries offer incentives for people to emigrate from their home countries.
B
Loss of family members to hardship and violence motivates people to immigrate to other countries.
C
The threat of enslavement, or human trafficking, compels families to seek refuge in other countries.
D
Relatives spread out all over the world because they are drawn to the benefits of different countries.

Explanation

A pull factor is something that attracts people to a destination. In chain migration, family members who have already moved can encourage others to join them, and incentives they offer can make the destination more appealing. Hardship, violence, and threats of trafficking are push factors because they drive people away from home.
