A
Double time
B
Population density
C
Negative population growth
D
Zero population growth
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It can be negative when death rate exceeds birth rate. This does not usually happen but in rare cases, it does happen. Again, this means more deaths and emigration, or the leaving of a country, than births and immigration, or entering a country.

Detailed explanation-2: -Population change is governed by the balance between birth rates and death rates. If the birth rate stays the same and the death rate decreases, then population numbers will grow. If the birth rate increases and the death rate stays the same, then population will also grow.
