Question 4 • W Geography_A_IC

Which of the following issues is not likely to be associated with a high TFR (total fertility rate)?

Answer
A
overcrowding
B
problems maintaining the food supply
C
labor shortages due to a declining population
D
difficulty providing health care for a young population

Explanation

A high total fertility rate means many children are born per woman, which can contribute to overcrowding, pressure on the food supply, and difficulty providing health care for a large young population. Labor shortages caused by a declining population are more associated with a low TFR, when fewer children are born and the population ages. Therefore, the issue not likely to be associated with a high TFR is labor shortages due to a declining population.
