If death rate falls in a country but birth rate remains high for a long time, what may result?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Rapid population growth

Direct answer: Option A is correct. Natural increase is the difference between the birth rate and the death rate. When the death rate falls but the birth rate stays high, many more people are born than die during the same period. This creates a large positive difference and can produce rapid population growth. The result may continue for some time even if the death rate has already improved. Option B is wrong because a high birth rate combined with a lower death rate does not immediately reduce population. Option C is wrong because natural increase would be zero only when births and deaths are equal, not when births remain high. Option D is unrelated: changes in birth and death rates do not automatically end migration. Memory cue: high births plus falling deaths creates a wide positive gap and therefore rapid natural growth.
