Many people are continuously moving into a city. Why will its population grow if births and deaths are equal?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because of positive net migration

Population change has two broad components: natural increase, which is births minus deaths, and net migration, which is arrivals minus departures. If births and deaths are equal, natural increase is zero. The city can still grow when more people enter than leave.

This situation is called positive net migration. For example, if 10,000 people arrive and 6,000 leave, the net migration is +4,000, so the city gains 4,000 people even without natural increase. Therefore, option B is correct. High natural increase is not the reason when births and deaths are equal.
