If a city has low birth rate but high immigration of students and workers, what will be the cause of growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Net migration

Direct answer: B, net migration. Population can increase in two broad ways: natural increase, which is births minus deaths, and net migration, which is immigrants minus emigrants. Here the birth rate is low, so births are not the main reason for the city’s increase. A large inflow of students and workers means more people enter the city than leave it, creating positive net migration. A is not the best answer because natural increase may be small or even negative when the birth rate is low. C cannot be a cause of growth; a higher death rate normally reduces population. D is only one component of natural change and is specifically described as low. Memory cue: people born there affect natural increase; people moving there affect net migration.
