Two countries both have zero net growth. In the first, births and deaths are very high; in the second, both are very low. Which conclusion is correct?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The first country may have higher demographic turnover

Zero net growth only means that the total number of people is not increasing or decreasing through the relevant balance. It does not reveal whether births and deaths are both low, both high, or balanced in some other way. A country with many births and many deaths can have the same net result as a country with very few births and very few deaths, but the demographic processes are much more active in the first country.

Therefore, the first country may have higher demographic turnover: many people enter the population through birth and many leave through death. Its age structure may also differ, but it cannot be identified with certainty from the information given. Option A is correct. Zero growth does not mean that structural change is impossible, and low mortality does not mean that no one dies, so options B, C, and D are unsupported.
