Explanation:

- The passage discusses characteristics of rural areas, mentioning factors such as population and typical livelihoods.

- The blank number 2 is meant to describe a characteristic related to population in rural areas.

- Option 1: Density

- Population density refers to the number of people living per unit area. It's the correct term to signify a low concentration of population, common in rural areas.

- Correct Answer: Populations in rural areas indeed have low "density".

- Option 2: Bulk

- "Bulk" refers to the mass or size of something, not commonly used in the context of population unless describing volume or weight.

- Option 3: Mass

- While "mass" can refer to the quantity of matter, in terms of population, it's not a typical term used to describe density or distribution.

- Option 4: Thickness

- "Thickness" typically describes the dimension from one surface to another, not applicable to population characteristics.
