If natural increase is positive but net migration is negative in an area, what can happen to total growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Total growth may reduce

The direct answer is A: total growth may be reduced. Natural increase is positive when births exceed deaths. Negative net migration means more people leave the area than enter it. Total population change combines these two components: total change equals natural increase plus net migration. Therefore, the negative migration value subtracts from the positive natural increase. If the two values are equal, total growth may become zero; if migration loss is larger, total population may even decline. A is correct because negative net migration can reduce the final growth. B is wrong because there is no rule that it doubles growth. C is wrong because migration is one of the components of total change. D is wrong because migration does not make the death rate zero. Memory cue: positive natural growth can be weakened by negative net migration.
