If births and deaths are equal but many people are moving out, what can total growth be like?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Negative

The direct answer is B: negative. Total population change depends on natural change plus net migration. When births and deaths are equal, natural change is approximately zero. However, if many people move out and fewer people move in, net migration is negative. This reduces the total population, so total growth can become negative. Option A is not the best answer because positive growth would require enough people entering to offset those leaving. Option B is correct because out-migration can make the population smaller. Option C is wrong because equal births and deaths do not cancel the effect of migration. Option D is wrong because out-migration does not always create rapid growth. The word “can” matters: the exact result depends on how many leave and how many enter. Memory cue: equal births and deaths plus more people leaving means a minus effect.
