In which condition can total population keep increasing even when the growth rate is falling?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When the growth rate remains positive

Direct answer: A is correct. The growth rate tells how quickly population changes, while the sign tells the direction of change. If the rate falls from 3% to 2% or from 2% to 0.5%, growth is slowing, but it is still positive; the population continues to increase, only more slowly. A negative rate means the total population is decreasing. No births would not by itself guarantee growth, because deaths and migration also matter, and everyone moving out would reduce the population. Thus falling growth rate must not be confused with population decline. Memory cue: “slower increase” is still increase as long as the rate is above zero.
