If the birth rate is very high but the death rate is also close to it, what is the most appropriate conclusion about natural increase?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Natural increase may be limited

Natural increase is found from the difference between the birth rate and the death rate. A high birth rate by itself does not guarantee a high natural increase, because many deaths may occur at the same time. What matters is the size of the gap between the two rates.

If both rates are very high but close to each other, their difference is small. Consequently, the population may show only limited natural increase. Therefore, option A is correct. Option B ignores the death rate, option C is too strong because the result need not be negative, and option D incorrectly claims that births alone determine natural increase. Migration is not part of this calculation.
