What does the percentage of population growth show?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The proportion by which the population has changed

Direct answer: A, the proportion by which the population has changed. A percentage compares the amount of change with the earlier population and expresses that comparison out of one hundred. For example, if a population changes from 1,000 to 1,100, the increase is 100, which is 10% of the original 1,000. Thus, percentage growth tells us the relative size of the change, not merely the new total. Option A is correct. Option B is wrong because river water is a physical or hydrological matter, not a population percentage. Option C is wrong because mountain height is measured as distance or elevation. Option D is wrong because soil colour is a physical characteristic. Memory cue: percentage means “part out of 100”; population growth percentage means population change compared with the starting population.
