If the growth rate is falling but remains positive, what will happen to the total population?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Total population will keep increasing but more slowly

The correct answer is A. A positive growth rate means that the population is still increasing. If the rate is falling, the speed of increase is becoming slower, but the direction remains upward as long as the rate stays above zero. For example, growth of 3% followed by 2% still represents growth, only at a slower pace. Option A correctly separates direction from speed. Option B would be correct only if the growth rate became negative, not merely lower while remaining positive. Option C has no mathematical basis. Option D is unrelated; population density still means people per unit area. Memory cue: positive means increase; falling means slower increase, not automatic decrease.
