question # 6
multiple choice
what can geographers conclude about a country that has a total fertility rate (tfr) of 1.8?
the population will decrease to nothing within years.
the population will increase at a healthy rate.
the population will decrease without immigration.
the population will increase too fast for the available resources.
the population will stay exactly the same

Explanation:

The replacement - level fertility rate is around 2.1. A TFR of 1.8 is below this level. Without immigration to boost the population, fewer children are being born than are needed to replace the existing population, so the population will decrease.

Answer:

The population will decrease without immigration
