A society in the near future values education and career over family. More and more couples decide to wait until they have succeeded at work before they are ready to start a family. This population would most likely be declining.
- Given the scenario where couples prioritize education and career over starting a family, it suggests a delay in having children until later stages of life. This trend commonly leads to a declining population because delayed childbearing tends to result in fewer overall children being born, which could eventually lead to a decrease in the population size. Therefore, the most likely outcome for this population would be option D: declining.
