Answer 1

If the birth rate is 10 per 1000 and death rate is rate is 10 per 1000 then the growth rate is C 0

Answer 2

Answer: C. 0%

Step-by-step explanation:

• Birth Rate is the fraction of the number of babies born every year per 1000 individuals in a population.
• Death Rate is the fraction of the number of deaths every year per 1000 individuals in a population.

Given: The birth rate = 10 per 1,000

The death rate = 10 per 1,000

Since the birth rate and the death rate both are same then there is no change in the population.

Therefore , there must be zero percent population growth or decay.
