Question

urban sprawl is:
increasing forest cover
expansion of urban areas into natural habitats
building parks
planting trees in cities

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze the definition of urban sprawl. Urban sprawl refers to the uncontrolled expansion of urban areas. "Increasing forest cover," "building parks," and "planting trees in cities" are actions related to urban greening or conservation, not sprawl. The option "Expansion of urban areas into natural habitats" matches the concept of urban sprawl as it involves urban development encroaching on natural spaces.

Answer:

B. Expansion of urban areas into natural habitats (assuming the options are labeled A, B, C, D with A: Increasing forest cover, B: Expansion of urban areas into natural habitats, C: Building parks, D: Planting trees in cities)
