If births and deaths are almost equal, how will natural increase be?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Almost zero

Direct answer: B, almost zero. Natural increase is calculated from the balance between births and deaths: natural increase = birth rate minus death rate. If nearly the same number of people are born as die, the difference is very small, so the population gains very little through natural change. Migration is not included in natural increase; immigration and emigration are separate processes. A is wrong because very rapid growth requires births to be much greater than deaths. C is wrong because a finite population cannot have infinite natural increase, and equal births and deaths do not produce infinity. D is wrong because the question asks about natural increase, which depends only on births and deaths, not only on migration. Memory cue: when births and deaths balance, natural increase is nearly zero.
