SOS:

The answer is lower than!!!

The death rate in Africa is the highest in the world. In 2005, the death rate was 14.2 per one thousand people. The average life expectancy (age people live to) on the continent was 50.4 during the same period. Although life expectancy rates are lower for those living in less-developed countries than in more-developed countries, Sub-Saharan Africa's is lower than most.

Hope this helps!!

Poverty is prevalent in Sub-Saharan Africa. It is also is the region with the highest prevalence (percentage of population) of hunger. When a person is malnourished as well as undernourished, he or she has lower immunity and is more prone to have diseases.
