If birth rate decreases in an area, what will generally happen to population growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Growth may slow down

Correct answer: A. Birth rate is the number of live births in a population during a specified time, usually expressed relative to the population. When fewer babies are born and other factors remain broadly unchanged, fewer people are added each year. As a result, the rate of population increase may slow down. The word “generally” matters because migration and deaths can also influence the final change. B is wrong because a lower birth rate does not normally make growth rapid. C is wrong because birth rate and death rate measure different events; fewer births do not eliminate deaths. D is wrong because migration is the movement of people and is not made impossible by a fall in births. A helpful cue is: fewer additions usually mean slower increase, not automatic population decline.
