What is death rate?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Number of deaths per thousand population

Direct answer: B. Death rate records the number of deaths per thousand people in a stated period, commonly one year. It relates deaths to the size of the population, so it is a rate rather than just a total count. In a simple form, death rate = deaths during the period divided by the population, multiplied by 1,000. A is birth rate because it counts births, not deaths. C is an area measurement and tells how much land a region covers; it is not a demographic rate. D describes population density, which relates population to land area, not deaths to population. A lower death rate can contribute to natural population growth if the birth rate stays higher, but death rate itself only measures mortality. Memory cue: “death” in death rate means count deaths per thousand.
