<span>C. Baby Boomers.
The period from 1946 to 1964 is known as the "baby boom" period in the United States. More babies were born in America than ever before in 1946, and the high birth rates continued for a number of years. Birth rates in the late 1940s and 1950s were much higher than they had been before, especially during the very low years of the Great Depression and World War II.
The birth rate in the US in 1935, in the midst of the Depression, was 18.7 births per 1,000 members of the population. At the peak of the Baby Boom in the 1950s, the birth rate reached over 25 births per 1,000 members of the population. In the present decade (the 2010s), the birth rate has dropped to around 12 births per 1,000 members of the population. </span>

The correct answers to these open questions are the following.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the use of presentence investigation reports?
The advantage is that this kind of background investigation can lead to a considerable reduction of the sentence if the authority finds a considerable reason to do so. On the other hand, the disadvantage or risk is that a failure in the investigation provokes an incorrect decision about the right sentence for the criminal.
Should factors such as education, family, work history, and prior criminal history have an impact on sentencing?
Yes, they should. That is part of the investigation. If the criminal has had a previous "normal" life, with no serious conflicts at all, those factors can be contemplated to reduce the sentence of the individual.
Should any external factors make a difference? Yes, that is why there is this kind of investigation. The probation officer has the responsibility of preparing this presentence investigation report and has the faculty to consider the element it deems necessary to severely punish a criminal or reduce the sentence to help it.
