Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Natural growth of population is the excess of births over deaths, that is, the crude birth rate minus the crude death rate. Migration changes the population of a region but is not part of natural growth; it is added separately to get total growth. Marriages influence fertility only indirectly and do not enter the calculation.
