If a city has low birth rate but many people come from outside for jobs, what can be the main cause of population growth?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Net migration

Direct answer: Option A, net migration, is correct. Population can grow through natural increase or migration. In this situation the birth rate is low, so births are not the main explanation. Many people are arriving from outside for employment, meaning immigration is high. If arrivals are greater than departures, net migration is positive and raises the city’s population. Option B is wrong because a death rate removes people rather than adding them. Option C may affect density but does not itself add residents. Option D is not a population-growth process in this example. Memory cue: job opportunities often attract migrants; more arrivals than departures mean positive net migration.
