Answer:

(C) Most Australians live in rural areas

Step-by-step explanation:

Australia is one of the largest countries, which is not weird considering that it is a country-continent. The large area though is mostly not populated, and Australia has small population for its size, thus very low population density. Most of Australia's population lives in the urban areas, with very small percentage living in the rural areas. The population is concentrated in the cities, but also along the coastline, as the interior of the country has very harsh conditions for living, with the majority of the country being arid and semi-arid, and small portion being tropical rain-forest.
