Question 1 Report

Which of the following best describes high population growth?
Answer Details
High population growth is when the number of births in a population exceeds the number of deaths. In other words, when the birth rate is higher than the death rate, the population will continue to grow. This means that the population is increasing at a fast rate, which can have significant impacts on resources, infrastructure, and the environment. Therefore, option D, "the birth rate is higher than the death rate," is the best description of high population growth.
