If birth rate is lower than death rate but immigration is very high, what can happen to total population?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It may still increase

The direct answer is A: the total population may still increase. Natural change equals births minus deaths. Here births are fewer than deaths, so natural change is negative. However, total population also includes migration. If the number of immigrants entering the area is greater than the natural decrease, the total population will rise. A is correct because high immigration can more than offset the loss caused by the higher death rate. B is wrong because the population does not automatically become zero. C is wrong because migration directly changes the number of people living in the area. D is wrong because immigration does not automatically make the birth rate rise; it is a movement of people, not a birth event. Memory cue: total change = natural change + net migration.
