Answer:
A rebuttal offers a counter-argument, which is itself a form of argument, by answering and questioning each part of an assertion. The introduction should provide a straightforward conclusion point in the case of a rebuttal article, and the body paragraphs should offer proof and interpretation to disprove the opposing argument.
Answer: Reversed Population Growth
Explanation:
...Russia and Japan are expected to have REVERSED population growth...
Both Russia and Japan have seen a higher proportion of their aging population as opposed to a young population.
This has led to estimates that there will be reversed population growth in these countries which means that the population will fall. In Japan this is particularly serious with 33% of the population above 60 years of age.
Should this trend continue, when those older people eventually pass on they will not be adequately replaced by the younger generation leading to a reduction in population.
