Patterns of Fertility and Mortality

Question 14 • W Geography_A_IC

A rural country implements a family planning education program for women. Which of the following conclusions can you safely make about this country?

Answer
A
This country is likely located in North America.
B
This country likely has a high total fertility rate (TFR).
C
This country likely has a low total fertility rate (TFR).
D
This country likely has an aging and declining population.

Explanation

Family planning education helps women make informed choices about contraception and the number and timing of children. Such programs are often introduced where fertility is high, so the safest conclusion is that this country likely has a high total fertility rate (TFR). The information does not establish that the country is in North America or has an aging, declining population.
