Answer:26%

Explanation:Mortality rate is another way to say death rate. It is a measure of the number of deaths due to a particular cause in a population.

Mortality rate is the total number of deaths from a particular cause in 1year ... the higher the death rate and the lower the birth rate, and the more likely the population will decline.
