The correct Answer is:
C
IMR (Infant Mortality Rate) and MMR (Maternal Mortality Rate) both are responsible for affecting the growth rate inversely. Decline in IMR as well as MMR will result in high population growth. If IMR has been increased and a MMR has been decreased in a population it will not cause any significant change in growth rate.
