Detailed explanation-1: -With industrialization, improvements in medical knowledge and public health, together with a more regular food supply, bring about a drastic reduction in the death rate but no corresponding decline in the birth rate. The result is a population explosion, as experienced in 19th-century Europe.
Detailed explanation-2: -Immigration describes individuals moving into the population while emigration describes individuals exiting the population. If immigration rates are higher than emigration rates, the population increases, whereas if emigration rates are higher than immigration rates, the population size decreases.
