In which situation can natural increase be negative but total growth be positive?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: In-migration exceeds the natural decrease

The correct answer is A. Natural increase is negative when deaths exceed births. However, total growth includes net migration. If the number of people entering an area is greater than the natural decrease and greater than departures, net migration can be sufficiently positive to raise the total population. Option A correctly describes this balance. Option B would make net migration negative and would reinforce population loss. Option C provides no births and no in-migration, so it cannot create positive total growth. Option D includes high deaths and out-migration, both of which tend to reduce population. Memory cue: a negative natural balance can be overcome by sufficiently large positive net migration.
