Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Malthus's prediction was that population growth would outstrip food production and lead to widespread poverty and famine. This has come closest to being true in less developed countries where there are high birth rates, limited access to resources and technology, and widespread poverty. Highly industrialized countries and countries in the temperate zone have been able to increase food production and manage population growth through technological advancements and economic development. Christian religion is not a determining factor in population growth and food production, so option C is not correct.
