If births and deaths are equal but in-migration is high, what will the actual population change be?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Positive

Answer: C, positive. Equal births and deaths produce zero natural change because the number added by births is balanced by the number removed through deaths. However, in-migration means people are entering the area from elsewhere. If this inflow is high, it adds residents and makes total population change positive, even though natural increase is zero. Option A is wrong because the question describes people entering, not leaving. Option B is wrong because population change remains measurable using population counts and migration data. Option D is wrong because area is not a direction of population change; it is a separate geographical measurement. Option C is correct because high in-migration increases the number of residents. Memory cue: when births equal deaths, let migration decide the direction—entries add and exits subtract.
