In which situation will natural increase be close to zero?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Birth rate and death rate are almost equal

Answer: C, natural increase is close to zero when birth rate and death rate are nearly equal. Natural increase considers only births and deaths: natural increase = birth rate − death rate. If the two rates are almost the same, their difference is very small. A is wrong because many more births than deaths produce a large positive natural increase. B is wrong because many more deaths than births produce a negative natural increase, not a value close to zero. D is wrong because immigration belongs to migration and affects total population change, but it is not included in natural increase. A region could have natural increase near zero and still grow because many people immigrate. Memory cue: “natural” means births and deaths only; migration is kept separate.
