In which situation can out-migration affect the economy of the source area?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When working-age people leave in large numbers

Direct answer: A, the source economy can be affected when many working-age people leave. Working-age residents often provide labour for farming, construction, trade, factories, transport, and services. Their departure can reduce the local workforce and may leave fewer people to produce goods or provide services. It can also change the age composition of the source population. A is correct because it clearly describes large-scale out-migration of economically active people. B is wrong because no out-migration produces no effect through people leaving. C describes return migration, which is different from the stated situation. D concerns natural population change, not movement between places. Out-migration can sometimes bring remittances to families, so its total economic effect may not always be negative; however, the immediate loss of workers is the effect asked about. Memory cue: source loses people; destination gains people.
