Which option correctly gives a simple relation between population growth and age structure?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rapid growth can increase the share of children and youth

Direct answer: Option A. Age structure describes how a population is divided into age groups, such as children, working-age people and older people. When a population has rapid growth because many births are occurring, younger age groups may form a larger share of the population. This is a possible relationship, not an absolute rule for every population. Option A is therefore correct. Option B is wrong because rapid growth associated with many births does not make everyone elderly; it can increase the proportion of children and young people. Option C is wrong because age structure is an important characteristic of a population and is connected with birth patterns and demographic change. Option D is wrong because rapid growth does not stop births; high births may be one reason for rapid growth. Memory cue: many recent births create a wider base of the age structure, meaning more children and youth.
