Expert Solution

Step 1

Fertility is an ability of an organism to be able to produce offspring through reproduction once they attain maturity in sex organs. The fertility rate or the total fertility rate is the average number of children born to a female in her lifetime providing she has lived throughout her reproductive life. The fertility rate is based on the age-specific fertility rates of females in their childbearing age, i.e., the international statistical usage of fertile age ranges from 15-44 years to 15-49 years.
