What general relationship can exist between age structure and fertility?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: High fertility can increase the share of children

Fertility means the level of childbearing in a population. When fertility is high for a period of time, many babies are born, so the share of children, often the 0–14 age group, can become larger. This makes the age structure look younger and may increase the need for schools, vaccinations, nutrition, and child health services. Thus, option A correctly states the general relationship: high fertility can increase the share of children.

The relationship is not an immediate or absolute rule for every single year, because migration, deaths, and the existing age distribution also affect population structure. However, over time, repeated high fertility adds more children to the population. High fertility does not always increase the elderly share, does not have no connection with age structure, and does not directly create only working-age adults. Children enter working ages much later, so option A is the only suitable conclusion.
