Introduction: The average total fertility rate of a population can be defined as the average number of offspring that will be born to a woman over her entire lifetime period.
Answer to Problem 1TY
Correct answer: The average total fertility rate that is needed for zero population change across the world is 2.3. Hence, the correct answer is option d.
Explanation of Solution
Reason for correct answer:
For the determination of an average number of children produced by a woman across the world, the total fertility rate is used and it is the most common metric. At present, it has been calculated that the average fertility rate for zero population change is less than 2.5 children per woman. The correct value for the average total fertility rate is 2.3.
Option d. is given as “2.3”.
An average total fertility rate of 2.3 is required for zero population change across the world. Hence, the correct answer is option d.
Reasons for incorrect answer:
Option a. is given as, “1.7”.
An average total fertility rate of 1.7 can be defined as a sub-replacement fertility rate of children born per woman. Hence, option a. is incorrect.
Option b is given as, “1.9”.
An average total fertility rate of 1.9 can be defined as a sub-replacement fertility rate of children born per woman. Hence, option b. is incorrect.
Option c. is given as, “2.0”.
The average total fertility rate which is required for zero population change is 2.3 instead of 2.0. Hence, option c. is incorrect.
Option e. is given as, “2.5”.
The average total fertility rate which is required for zero population change is 2.3 instead of 2.5. Hence, option e. is incorrect.
Hence, the options a., b., c., and e. are incorrect.
An average total fertility rate of 2.3 can be defined as an average rate of production of offspring by a woman across the world for no change in the population.

- San Andreas Transform Boundary Plate Motion The geologic map below of southern California shows the position of the famous San Andreas Fault, a transform plate boundary between the North American Plate (east side) and the Pacific Plate (west side). The relative motion between the plates is indicated by the half arrows along the transform plate boundary (i.e., the Pacific Plate is moving to the northwest relative to the North American Plate). Note the two bodies of Oligocene volcanic rocks (labeled Ov) on the map in the previous page located along either side of the San Andreas Fault. These rocks are about 23.5 million years old and were once one body of rock. They have been separated by displacement along the fault. 21. Based on the offset of these volcanic rocks, what is the average annual rate of relative plate motion in cm/yr?
