A country has more births than deaths but a very large number of people emigrate during the same period. How will total growth be determined?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: By combining natural increase and net migration

Total population change has two main components: natural increase and net migration. Natural increase is births minus deaths. Net migration is the number entering a country minus the number leaving it. Therefore, a country may have more births than deaths and still experience small growth, no growth, or decline if emigration is large enough.

Option D is correct because total change is found by combining both components: \(\text{Total change} = (\text{Births} - \text{Deaths}) + \text{Net migration}\). Since net migration becomes negative when many people leave, it can offset positive natural increase. Looking only at births, deaths, or area would miss an important part of the population balance. The exact result would require the relevant migration numbers.
