Answer:

The correct answer is D. A large-scale natural disaster wouldn't encourage population to experience exponential growth.

Step-by-step explanation:

A natural disaster is caused by nature itself, not by man; therefore being difficult to stop. A natural disaster can be very devastating: it can cause widespread damage and kill many people. Examples of natural disasters are earthquakes, floods, volcanic eruptions, fires or tsunamis among others.

Due to the high death rate that these disasters can produce (from hundreds to thousands of deaths is a common figure), natural disasters do not help the population growth of a given population.
