If natural increase is zero but in-migration is high in a region, what will happen to total population?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It may increase

Answer: A, the total population may increase. Natural increase is zero when births and deaths are equal, so these two processes produce no net natural change. However, total population also depends on migration. If many people move into the region and the number entering is greater than the number leaving, the region gains residents. Therefore, its total population can rise even though its natural increase is zero. B is wrong because high in-migration does not necessarily cause decline. C is wrong because population is not guaranteed to remain stable when migration is high. D is not a meaningful description of population change; migration does not turn into a death rate. Memory cue: zero natural increase does not mean zero total change—always check migration.
