If births are very low and deaths are also very low in a country, what can natural increase be like?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Slow or low

Direct answer: A, natural increase can be slow or low. Natural increase is the difference between the number or rate of births and the number or rate of deaths, without including migration. If births are very low and deaths are also very low, the difference may be small, so population growth from natural change is likely to be slow. It is not automatically zero because the exact result depends on how low each rate is; births could still be slightly higher than deaths. A is therefore the safest and correct choice. B is wrong because low births do not normally produce rapid natural increase. C is wrong because nothing in the situation makes the population exactly double. D is wrong because natural increase can be calculated from available birth and death data. Memory cue: natural increase = births minus deaths; when both are low, the difference is often low.
