The term population explosion is generally used for which situation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Very rapid population growth

Population explosion is a descriptive term for exceptionally rapid population growth over a period. It is commonly associated with a situation in which births remain high while death rates fall, causing the population to increase quickly. Such rapid growth can place pressure on food, water, housing, education, health care, employment, and infrastructure, though the actual effects depend on resources and policy.

Option A is therefore correct. Low population density describes how many people occupy an area, not how quickly their number is changing. Zero migration concerns movement, and urbanisation describes a growing share of people living in towns and cities. These processes can occur together, but none is itself the meaning of population explosion.
