If child mortality falls in an area and birth rate remains high, which result is possible?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Population growth may become rapid

Direct answer: C, population growth may become rapid. Birth rate measures births, while child mortality measures how many young children die. If many children survive because child mortality falls, and births continue at a high level, the number of people added to the population can rise. The natural increase is broadly related to births minus deaths; fewer deaths make this difference larger when births remain high. A is not necessarily correct because the reduced mortality can speed growth. B is not supported: a fall in child mortality does not by itself cause population decline. D is unrelated, because mortality and birth conditions do not automatically stop migration. The word “may” is important: other factors, such as migration and later changes in fertility, can also affect the final result. Memory cue: high births plus fewer deaths usually means faster natural increase.
