The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "All of these have a positive influence on the growth of the population except," we need to analyze each of the options provided: natality, mortality, immigration, and fecundity. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Terms**: - **Natality**: This refers to the birth rate in a population. A high natality rate means more births, which contributes positively to population growth. - **Mortality**: This is the death rate in a population. A high mortality rate means more deaths, which negatively impacts population growth. - **Immigration**: This refers to the movement of individuals into a population. More individuals entering a population contributes positively to its growth. - **Fecundity**: This indicates the potential reproductive capacity of an individual or population, essentially the fertility rate. Higher fecundity leads to more offspring, positively influencing population growth. 2. **Analyze Each Factor**: - **Natality**: Positive influence on growth (more births = higher population). - **Mortality**: Negative influence on growth (more deaths = lower population). - **Immigration**: Positive influence on growth (more individuals entering = higher population). - **Fecundity**: Positive influence on growth (higher fertility = more offspring). 3. **Identify the Exception**: - Among the options, **mortality** is the only factor that negatively influences population growth. All other factors (natality, immigration, and fecundity) positively influence growth. 4. **Conclusion**: - The correct answer to the question is **mortality**, as it is the only factor that does not have a positive influence on population growth. ### Final Answer: **Mortality** is the factor that does not have a positive influence on the growth of the population. ---
