Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Supply push factors are forces inside a country that cause people to think about leaving, such as poor economic opportunities or instability. Demand pull factors are forces that pull migrants to a particular country or region. These could include high rates of economic growth or high demand for particular types of workers. Social networks are made up of family or community members that have previously migrated. They can share information and help recent migrants transition to the new community.
