Answer 2

The correct answer is "D".

The concentric zone model or burgess model for city growth was a theoretical urbanistic model during the first half of the 20th century. It placed the central business district at the center of a city, followed by a mixed transition zone of residential and commercial areas.

Regarding the residential areas, the zone that bordered the mixed transition zone (closer to the city center) was normally destined for working class communities, while the outer area located on the edge of the city was where the wealthy residents lived.
