Through which process can a city's population grow fast without change in birth rate?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: In-migration

The direct answer is A: in-migration. A city’s population changes through births, deaths, and migration. The wording says that the birth rate has not changed, so the rapid increase must mainly come from people entering the city. Step 1: residents of villages or other towns move into the city. Step 2: these newcomers become part of the city’s counted population. Step 3: the city grows even though its own birth rate has remained unchanged. Option A is correct. B, out-migration, means people leave the city, so it normally lowers the city’s population. C, deaths, remove people and therefore cannot produce rapid growth. D, natural decrease means deaths exceed births; it leads to decline, not increase. A useful formula is: population change = births − deaths + in-migration − out-migration. Memory cue: “in” adds people; “out” takes people away. The question asks about the city, not the whole country, so internal migration can increase the city total without changing the national total.
