In which situation will the population of an area decrease most rapidly?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Deaths and out-migration are high

Direct answer: B—when deaths and out-migration are high. A population falls when people are removed through deaths or when residents leave for another area. Step by step, high deaths directly reduce the number of people living in the area. High out-migration also reduces the local population because more residents leave. If births and in-migration do not compensate for these losses, the decline becomes rapid. B is correct because both listed processes are reducing processes and both are high. A is wrong because high births and high in-migration add people, so they favour increase. C is wrong because low deaths reduce losses while high births add people. D is wrong because high in-migration adds people and low deaths remove fewer people. The exact speed depends on the size of all four flows, but among the choices B gives the clearest combination for rapid decrease. Memory cue: deaths take people out of life; out-migration takes residents out of the area.
