If infant mortality declines in a country, what effect on population change is possible?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Growth may rise because more children survive

Answer: A. Infant mortality is the death of children during infancy. If it declines, a greater proportion of babies survive, so fewer deaths are removed from the population. If births and other conditions remain similar, this can increase natural increase and may contribute to faster population growth. A correctly says “may” because population change also depends on births, other deaths and migration; the result is not automatic in every situation. B is incorrect because lower infant mortality does not end births. C is incorrect because survival rates do not necessarily stop people from moving. D is incorrect because mortality has no direct effect on the physical area of a country. Memory cue: fewer infant deaths means more surviving children, not fewer births.
