Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Population growth may be described in simple terms as the rate at which the number of people residing in a particular country is increasing or multiplying. Some states or countries have a higher population figure than the other and also higher rate of growth. As population increases, the resources available to people in that community suffers as the burden will also grow. The environment also will also take its own share of the effects as overcrowding seems to creep in together with increased burden on environmental resources and infrastructure. If proactive measures aren't taken in other to boost resources and infrastructure as indaquate handling of population growth will almost always result in environmental and infrastructure degradation or decline.
