Answer: this means that more children are being born each year (in relation to the size of the country’s population). This means that more mothers are having children each year. If a country’s birth rate increases, this probably means that the country’s overall population is increasing too.

Answer: Birth rate is the amount of births in a certain amount of time in a certain country. For example, if there are 1000 births every 5 minutes, that is a birth rate. An increasing birth rate would be one that is growing all the time, and it would increase population because as the birth rate is growing, more people are born, and there are more people in the population.
