Answer:

a. disease epidemics during peacetime have resulted in more deaths than history's major wars.

Explanation:

On Armistice Day of World War I, in 1918, the world was already fighting another battle. The Spanish flu had exploded, a pandemic that in the end killed almost three times more people than the 17 million soldiers and civilians who died during the so-called Great War.

The most dangerous diseases tend to be headlines when there is a risk of a pandemic, such as the current Ebola outbreak. When this is not the case, they are usually ignored despite the fact that each year they kill more people than wars and military conflicts.

For the first two-thirds of the 20th century, Algeria’s high fertility rate caused its population to grow rapidly. However, about a decade after independence from France in 1962 the total fertility rate fell dramatically from 7 children per woman in the 1970s to about 2.4 in 2000, slowing Algeria’s population growth rate by the late 1980s. The lower fertility rate was mainly the result of women’s rising age at first marriage (virtually all Algerian children being born in wedlock) and to a lesser extent the wider use of contraceptives. Later marriages and a preference for smaller families are attributed to increases in women’s education and participation in the labor market; higher unemployment; and a shortage of housing forcing multiple generations to live together. The average woman’s age at first marriage increased from about 19 in the mid-1950s to 24 in the mid-1970s to 30.5 in the late 1990s.

The structure of US government: checks and balances

Explanation:

In addition to separating powers among the branches, the Framers gave each branch the power to check, or stop, the actions of the other two branches in meaningful ways. For example, the president has the power to veto, or reject, laws made by Congress.
