If death rate is higher than birth rate in an area but immigration is even higher, how can total population change?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Total population may increase

Correct answer: A, total population may increase. First calculate natural change: births minus deaths. Because the death rate is higher than the birth rate, natural change is negative, so the resident population would decrease if there were no migration. However, total population change also includes net migration. If the number entering is greater than the natural loss and any people leaving, the migration gain can more than compensate for the natural decrease. Option B is too absolute: it ignores the large immigration stated in the question. Option C is wrong because stability would require the gains and losses to balance exactly. Option D is wrong because population can be measured through demographic records and censuses. Memory cue: total change = natural change + net migration.
