In which situation will an area's population increase while natural growth remains negative?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Deaths exceed births, but immigration is very high

Direct answer: Option A is correct. Natural growth is calculated from births minus deaths. If deaths are greater than births, natural growth is negative. However, total population change also includes migration: total change depends on natural change plus immigration minus emigration. In option A, the area loses population naturally because deaths exceed births, but a very large number of immigrants enters the area. If immigration is greater than this natural loss, the total population still increases. Option B gives positive natural growth, not negative growth. Option C gives zero natural growth and zero migration, so the population does not increase through these processes. Option D combines high emigration with low births, so it is unlikely to increase population. Memory cue: natural growth means births minus deaths; migration is a separate addition or subtraction.
