Why can demand for services rise even when population growth rate declines?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because total population may still be increasing

The direct answer is A: total population can continue to increase even when its growth rate becomes lower. A growth rate describes the speed of change, while total population is the actual number of people. For example, if a population of 1,000 grows by 5%, it gains 50 people; if it later grows by 2%, it still gains 20 people. The increase is smaller, but the total population is still rising. Option A is correct because a positive rate, even a declining one, adds people. Option B is wrong because a low rate does not mean zero population; it means slower growth. Option C is wrong because schools, hospitals, water and transport serve people, so demand is related to population size. Option D is wrong because a declining rate is not necessarily negative. Memory cue: lower speed is not the same as moving backward.
