What is the simple meaning of absolute population growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Difference between population of two times

Direct answer: A, absolute population growth is the difference between the population at two specified times. Usually, it is calculated as current population minus previous population: absolute growth = present population − earlier population. It gives the actual number of people added or lost, such as 2 lakh people, rather than a percentage. Option A is correct because it states this comparison directly. Option B is wrong because area is land measurement and is unrelated to the number of people added. Option C is wrong because birth rate and literacy are different indicators and are not added to calculate absolute growth. Option D is wrong because forest percentage describes land cover, not population change. If the current population is smaller, the difference indicates a decline. Memory cue: absolute means the actual numerical difference; percentage growth requires an additional calculation using the earlier population.
