What does absolute population growth mean?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Actual difference between population of two times

Direct answer: A, absolute population growth is the actual difference between population figures at two different times. To find it, take the later population and subtract the earlier population: absolute growth = later population − earlier population. For example, if a population rises from 20,000 to 23,000, the absolute growth is 3,000 people. It tells us how many people were added or lost, not the relative size of the change. Option A is correct because it describes a numerical comparison between two population counts. Option B is wrong because colour is not a population measure. Option C is wrong because rainfall and sound do not calculate population change. Option D is wrong because river direction is a geographical feature unrelated to population totals. Do not confuse absolute growth with percentage growth: absolute growth gives the actual number, while percentage growth expresses that change relative to the earlier population.
