Solution

The correct statement about human population growth is: "Human populations grew slowly until relatively recently."

Here's why:

  1. The human population growth rate has not been steady over thousands of years. It has fluctuated due to various factors such as disease, famine, and war.

  2. Human populations did grow slowly until relatively recently. The advent of modern medicine and technology has led to a significant increase in the human population.

  3. The human population growth rate did not crash in the last 150 years. In fact, it has significantly increased due to advancements in medicine and technology.

  4. For most of human history, the human population has not increased and decreased sporadically. It has generally been on a trend of growth, albeit at different rates at different times.
