In population growth, what are people leaving an area called?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Emigrants

The direct answer is B: emigrants. Emigration means moving out of a place, so people who leave an area for another place are called emigrants from the area they leave. B is correct because it identifies outward movement. A is wrong in this context because immigrants are people entering a new area; the same person may be an emigrant from the old area and an immigrant in the receiving area. C is wrong because births are the addition of new people through being born, not movement away. D is wrong because infants are very young children and the word does not describe direction of movement. In population accounting, emigration reduces the population of the place of departure, while immigration increases the population of the receiving place. Memory cue: “emigration” means exit or movement out; “immigration” means movement in. Always identify the reference area before choosing the term.
