O Levels Economics (2281)•2281/11/M/J/22
Question 19 from 2281/11/M/J/22

Explanation

Human resources focus on workforce size and skills, not land.

Steps:

  • Define human resources as the population's labor capacity, measured by quantity (number of workers) and quality (skills, health).
  • Assess each option: A, B, and C enhance skills, health, or nutrition, directly improving human resources.
  • Evaluate D: Land reclamation expands physical territory, affecting natural resources instead.
  • Conclude the action not directly impacting human resources is D.

Why D is correct:

  • Human resources in economics refer to labor supply and productivity; land reclamation increases natural capital (e.g., arable land) per the factors of production model, not human factors.

Why the others are wrong:

  • A: Boosts skills and knowledge, enhancing workforce quality.
  • B: Improves physical well-being, increasing worker efficiency and longevity.
  • C: Enhances nutrition, supporting population health and growth for better quantity and quality.

Final answer: D

Topic: The factors of production
