Answer:

The density decreases.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Mortality is the term used to represent the death of the individuals and emigration is the term used to represent the movement of individuals out of a place.
  • The density of the population is measured as the number of individuals found per unit area.
  • If in given area mortality and emigration occurs, then the number of individuals in the area will decrease and hence, the population density will also decrease.
