If the birth rate and death rate are almost equal, how can population growth be?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Slow or almost stable

Direct answer: A, slow or almost stable. Natural population growth is understood by comparing births with deaths. When the two rates are nearly equal, the number added through births is nearly balanced by the number removed through deaths, so the natural increase is small. The population may therefore grow slowly or remain almost stable. Migration can still make the total population rise or fall, so “almost stable” refers mainly to the natural component unless migration is also considered. B is wrong because equal rates do not produce rapid natural growth. C is wrong because a small balance cannot create unlimited growth. D is wrong because migration may affect total population change. Memory cue: nearly equal births and deaths = nearly zero natural increase.
