If the death rate falls rapidly in an area but the birth rate remains high for a long time, which condition may arise?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rapid population growth

Correct answer: D, rapid population growth. Population growth is strongly affected by the difference between births and deaths. If the birth rate remains high while the death rate falls, many more people are added through births than removed through deaths. This creates a large natural increase, and the population may grow rapidly, especially if migration is not large enough to offset it. Option D is correct. Option A is wrong because the birth rate is still high and the death rate has fallen, so the stated conditions do not point to immediate decline. Option B is wrong because stability would require births and deaths to be approximately balanced, or other changes to offset the difference. Option C is wrong because nothing in the question gives information about migration. Memory cue: high births plus falling deaths creates a wide demographic gap, which can produce rapid growth.
