In a society, education, urbanisation and family planning reduce the birth rate while the death rate is already low. What is the most likely effect?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Population growth will slow

Natural population growth is the difference between the birth rate and the death rate. When the death rate is already low, reducing the birth rate makes this difference smaller. Education, urbanisation, and family planning commonly support decisions that lead to fewer births, so the natural increase slows.

Thus option A, population growth will slow, is the best answer. The total population may still rise for some time if births remain higher than deaths, but it will rise more slowly. A fall in birth rate does not immediately make deaths increase, reduce density to zero, or stop migration. Those choices do not follow from the information given.
