The best description of rapidly expanding population is rate a high birth rate and many individuals in the younger age groups.

Population growth or population growth Listening or total population change refers to the difference between the size of a population at the end and at the beginning of a given period (usually one year).

It can be expressed as the rate of change in the number of individuals within a population per unit of time and for any species (animal or plant, for example).

It is divided into two distinct parts:

* natural increase; the difference between the number of live births and the number of deaths in a territory during a period. It can be either positive or negative.

* net migration.

A population explosion is a very high population growth and therefore very fast population
