Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of people within a continent will be an important indicator of demographic expansion because a large initial population base is capable of producing far more births than a less-populated continent. This is true even if the much more populated one has lower birth rates.

There are many factors that come into pay when determining population growth. These include:

  • fertility and replacement rates
  • mortality rates
  • population size
