If births and deaths are equal but out-migration is greater than in-migration, what will happen to the total population?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Total decline

Answer: D, total decline. First separate the two balances. Since births equal deaths, natural increase is zero: births − deaths = 0. Next examine migration. More people are leaving than entering, so net migration is negative. The total population change is natural increase plus net migration. In this case it is 0 plus a negative number, which gives a decline. A is wrong because no positive balance has been given. B names a process, not the actual result, and natural increase here is zero. C is wrong because zero natural increase does not mean zero total change when migration is unequal. D is correct because the loss through migration reduces the total population. Memory cue: zero births-minus-deaths does not cancel a migration loss.
