The population change equation is Population change = (Natality – Mortality) + (Immigration – Emigration). Which equation would create a stable population?(1 point)

Question

Responses

natality - mortality = immigration - emigration
natality - mortality = immigration - emigration

natality + immigration = mortality - emigration
natality + immigration = mortality - emigration

natality + mortality = immigration + emigration
natality + mortality = immigration + emigration

natality + immigration = mortality + emigration
natality + immigration = mortality + emigration

Answer 1

To create a stable population, the equation must ensure that the number of individuals being added to the population (through natality and immigration) equals the number of individuals leaving the population (through mortality and emigration).

This translates to the equation: natality + immigration = mortality + emigration

Thus, the correct response is: natality + immigration = mortality + emigration.
