If births are low in a city but in-migration is high, what can happen to population change?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The total population may increase

Answer: D, the total population may increase. Population change depends on both natural change and migration. Natural change is calculated from births minus deaths. Migration change is calculated from in-migration minus out-migration. Therefore, even when births are low, a city can gain many residents if more people enter it than leave it. Option A is wrong because low births alone do not guarantee decline; deaths and migration must also be considered. Option B is wrong because population can still be counted through a census or other population records. Option C is wrong because migration is an additional cause of population change, not natural increase. Option D is correct because a large inflow of people can more than compensate for low births. Memory cue: births and deaths change population naturally; people entering and leaving change it through migration.
