In which situation can a gender effect of population change also emerge?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: When migration is mainly of male workers

The correct answer is A. If migration is mainly undertaken by male workers, the number and proportion of males may rise in the destination area and fall in the source area. This changes the sex composition, even though the total population change may be described simply as migration. Such a movement can also affect household responsibilities, the available labour force and the balance between people of different ages and sexes. A is correct because it identifies sex-selective migration. B has no migration effect. C compares births and deaths but does not show that one sex is moving more than another. D concerns area, not gender composition. Memory cue: ask not only “how many moved?” but also “who moved?”
