If the death rate falls rapidly first and the birth rate declines only gradually later, what effect will occur during the interval?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Natural increase will accelerate

Natural increase depends on the gap between the birth rate and the death rate. If the death rate falls rapidly while the birth rate remains high, many fewer people die but births continue at a relatively high level. The difference between births and deaths therefore becomes larger.

During this interval, natural increase accelerates and population grows more rapidly. This pattern is typical of an early stage of demographic transition, although the answer does not require naming that model. Therefore option A is correct. Population would not immediately decline, and growth would not be zero unless births and deaths were equal. Migration is not needed to produce this effect.
