A country is experiencing neagtive population growth which of the following would help stabilize their population in the long term? A. Decrease the death rate

B. Increase the birthrate

C. Decrease the birthrate

D. Maintain both birth and death rate at their current levels

A.

Explanation:

Decreasing the death rate of a nation carries with it a healthier population, as people are not dying as quickly whether that be due to greater education, more food, better sanitation or otherwise. A higher birthrate would likely only amount to more restrictions for a nation that it evidently cannot sustain due to its declining population.  Essentially; improve the quality of life, not the quantity of it, the more people live, the more children they will eventually have instead of fighting for their lives to survive.
