Question 10 • CMS 2026-2027 Biology CREDIT RECOVERY

Predict what might happen to a population that is experiencing little immigration and emigration, low birth rate, and high death rate.

Answer
A
The population increases.
B
The population grows outside of its habitat.
C
The population grows too much too fast.
D
The population decreases.

Explanation

With little immigration or emigration, few individuals are entering or leaving the population. A low birth rate adds few new individuals, while a high death rate removes many, so the population is likely to decrease. Choice D, “The population decreases,” is correct.
