rewona [7]

Answer:

The answer is Option C: Index fossils.

Explanation:

Index fossils are used to identify geologic periods or faunal stages in rock layers. These fossils must have a wide geographic distribution and manifest obvious evolutionary trends to help geologists and others who need this geological data to better understand the time scale and to pinpoint a time period. For example, ammonites were common during the Mesozoic Era, but they were extinct by the Cretaceous period.  Geologists would use ammonites to help determine this time frame if present.

Lapatulllka [165]

According to the graph, we can see the total fertility rates that can be compared to the population growth rates, as shown in option C. Thus, option C is the correct answer.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The chart analyzes the NIR of the regions.
  • The NIR is related to the percentage of growth that a population achieved during one year.
  • The chart analyzes this value, associating it with the natural growth of these regions.
  • This natural growth shows how much the population of a country has grown, without considering the migration that takes place in a country, that is, without considering the people who have moved between regions of the country.

In this case, we know that the graph considers population growth taking into account the birth rate and therefore considering the fertility rate, in one year.
