According to the United Nations World Population Prospects, Japan has a TFR of 1.27. Based on this figure, which of the followin
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

It is least likely that Japan will be experiencing population growth.

Explanation:

Japan is a country that has a very large population for a country of its size, over 120 million people. Japan though, faces huge demographic problems, which will be more and more serious as the years pass by. The problems now are not that the population is very large, but that the population is aging and will start to experience sharp decrease in the coming decades.

The total fertility rate (TFR) of the country is only 1.27, which is far from enough for simple replacement of the population, as for that a TFR of 2 is needed. Less and less children are born, which in turn provides smaller and smaller population for reproduction with each generation. On the other hand, Japan is a country that has one of the highest life expectancy in the world, and the old population is constantly on the rise.

Such situation brings in lot of economic problems, as very soon the number of old people will equal the number of people of working age, and that is almost impossible to be managed. The Japanese governments have been trying to persuade the young people to form a family and have more children, but the reality is the opposite, as more and more young people decide to be solitary, not form a family, and if they do, they tend to have one child, or maybe two.

How did the language of Quechua spread throughout the Andes?
Georgia [21]
We can immediately reject option D - while Spanish is an Indo-European language, Quechua is an indigenous language of the Americas. 

The Spanish conquerors did not care much about the indigenous population - except if they could covert them, which would make them be seen as defenders of the Christian faith and win them favours with the Pope. 

So they would not teach the indigenous population in secular schools, they would however, try to teach them religion. The correct answer is A - The Catholic clergy believed that Christianity would be adopted faster if translated into an indigenous language.

Warm, dry wind associated with devastating fires in Southern California Another name for a whirlwind; blows dust and sand into a
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: A.Santa Ana

Explanation:

This description perfectly agrees with the Santa Ana Winds (also called Santana Winds), which are due to a meteorological phenomenon that occurs between southern California and northern Baja California during autum and early winter (although they can also occur in the other seasons of the year). In this sense, strong winds are caused by high air pressure circulating clockwise at high altitudes in the Great Basin between Sierra Nevada and the Rocky Mountains (and the Mojave Desert).

It should be noted that these winds are characteristic of the region, which dry the vegetation, knock down electric utility poles and trees, and sometimes transport hot embers, being the main cause of fire spread.
