Emigration generally results in:

“Decreased population size” for emigration generally results in. This relationship follows from the ecological mechanism represented by the terms in the item, not merely from an association between their names. Interpretation must distinguish absolute population change from a per-capita rate and must state the time interval and population boundary. Age structure, dispersal, environmental variation, and delayed responses can all make observed trajectories depart from a simple model. The remaining alternatives—“Increased population size”, “No change in population size”, “Increased genetic divers

Movement of individuals out of a population is termed:

“Emigration” for movement of individuals out of a population is termed. This relationship follows from the ecological mechanism represented by the terms in the item, not merely from an association between their names. Population ecology links individual births, deaths, immigration, and emigration to changes in abundance. Per-capita rates determine the direction of change, while density dependence creates feedback when crowding alters survival or reproduction. The remaining alternatives—“Immigration”, “Dispersion”, “Colonization”—refer to different states, processes, or scales and therefore do
