In which situation can growth rate be low but total population still be increasing?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Births are slightly more than deaths

Correct answer: A. A low growth rate means that population is increasing slowly, not necessarily that it is decreasing. If births are only slightly greater than deaths, the natural increase is positive but small. For example, 101 births and 100 deaths produce an increase of one person before migration is considered. B would cause a decline if deaths greatly exceeded births. C suggests strong out-migration, which would reduce the local population unless offset by other additions. D removes one source of population addition and does not describe a positive increase by itself. Migration can change the final result, so the safest interpretation is that births are slightly more than deaths and other factors do not cancel the increase. Memory cue: low positive growth is still growth; negative growth means the total is falling.
