Which option correctly differentiates slow growth and negative growth? A In slow growth, population increases but at a low rate; in negative growth, population decreases B In slow growth, population remains constant; in negative growth, population increases C In slow growth, the number of births and deaths is equal; in negative growth, there are no deaths D In slow growth, population becomes zero; in negative growth, population remains constant
