b. Result in a decline in growth rate
c. Not cause a significant change in growth rate
d. Result in an explosive population

Answers (1)

The answer is the option (c) not change the growth rate significantly

 

Exp: The Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) refers to the number of deaths of children under one year of age per 1,000 live births. The Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) measures the number of deaths of mothers during childbirth or from related complications. It is calculated by dividing the number of recorded maternal deaths by the total number of recorded births within the same period, then multiplying that figure by 100,000.An increase in the IMR alongside a decrease in the MMR does not significantly impact the overall growth rate.
