Population de Jure refers to the population count based on the legally defined boundaries of a region, whereas Population de facto refers to the population count based on the actual number of people residing in a region.
A country can experience a negative population growth rate in circumstances such as high death rates, low birth rates, and significant net out-migration.
To calculate the rate of crude natural increase in country A in year 1999, we can use the formula:
Population growth rate = (Births - Deaths) / Total population
Given that population growth rate was 2% and net migration was -0.05%, we can calculate: (Crude birth rate - Crude death rate) = 2% - (-0.05%) = 2.05%
Development can affect population growth of a country by providing better healthcare, education, and economic opportunities which can lead to lower mortality rates, higher literacy rates, and increased access to family planning services.
Development can also affect urbanization of a country by creating more job opportunities in urban areas, improving infrastructure, and providing better living standards which can attract people from rural areas to urban centers.
Rapid population growth can negatively affect the development of a country by putting strain on resources, infrastructure, and public services. It can lead to higher unemployment rates, lower quality of life, and environmental degradation.

Answers:
1. a) natural increase and births
2. b) it has the highest number of populations
3. B. The population of South Africa is increasing but at a slower rate
4. D. Does not take into account the net migration rate
5. B. 45,000 (Population increase = Births - Deaths + Net migration ; 50,000 = 10,000 - 5,000 + Net migration ; Net migration = 50,000 - 10,000 + 5,000 = 45,000)
