# What are the different types of settlements? There are two main types of settlements: urban and rural. The characteristics used to distinguish them are the size of the land, the population density, and the main economic activities. ## Rural Settlements * Located in the countryside. * Generally small and sparsely populated. * Buildings are spaced out, with a low population density. * Examples include hamlets, villages, and small towns. * Economic activities are centered around agriculture, weaving, carving, fishing, and extracting wood from the forest. ## Urban Settlements * Larger in size and more densely populated. * Boundaries are expandable and grow with the population. * Economic activity evolves with the population growth. * More buildings are constructed as the population increases. **Image A:** (Description of Image A) A rural scene with scattered buildings, suggesting a low-density population and possible agricultural activities. **Image B:** (Description of Image B) An image of people working in a field to harvest onions. This strongly suggests agricultural activity. **Questions:** 1. In picture A, how can you describe the density of the population? 2. In picture B, what is the economic activity? 3. What type of settlement do these pictures represent?
