If young people are continuously leaving a rural region, what effect may this have on population growth there?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Growth may slow or become negative

Continuous out-migration of young people can reduce population growth in a rural region in two ways. First, the people who leave are removed from the region’s population, so the total may decline directly. Second, when many young adults leave, fewer people remain in the usual childbearing ages, which may reduce the number of births in future years.

As a result, population growth may become slower, zero, or even negative if losses exceed births and other gains. The result is not guaranteed in every case, so option C correctly says it may slow or become negative. Options A and D use absolute claims, while B ignores both the population loss and possible effect on births.
