Answer:

D. C, E and F

Explanation:

The diagram shows the numbers of females and males on a population of elephants. You can read these kinds of diagrams by comparing the two sides of the pyramid and reading the values on the line bellow (axis X). Each of the lines represents an age cohort, which is defined on the table on the right.

Therefore, the classes where there are more females are:

C: Females: 2 ; Males 1

E: Females: 7 ; Males 4

F: Females: 2 ; Males 1

On the others, either there are more males than females, or an equal number:

A: Females: 9 ; Males 10

B: Females: 9 ; Males 9

D: Females: 1 ; Males 2
