If in-migration exceeds out-migration in a country, what is this called?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Positive net migration

Net migration compares the number of people entering a country with the number leaving it. It is calculated as in-migration minus out-migration. If more people enter than leave, this difference is positive, so the country has positive net migration. This is different from natural increase, which compares births and deaths.

The question states that in-migration exceeds out-migration. Therefore, the difference between the two flows is greater than zero, and the correct term is positive net migration. Option C is correct. Negative natural increase would mean deaths exceed births, while zero migration would require equal inflow and outflow.
