If the birth rate is higher than the death rate, what will be the effect on population?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The population will increase

Direct answer: Option A, the population will increase, assuming other conditions do not reverse the effect. First compare the two rates: a higher birth rate means more people are being added through births than are being removed through deaths. Therefore, natural increase is positive and the population tends to grow. Migration can also affect the final population, but it does not change the basic conclusion about natural increase. Option B is wrong because a positive difference between births and deaths cannot make the population zero. Option C is wrong because equal birth and death rates, not a higher birth rate, would produce zero natural increase. Option D is meaningless: a population is a group of people, not a physical area. A useful equation is natural increase = birth rate − death rate. Memory cue: births above deaths means the population rises; deaths above births means it falls.
