Which of the following is a major determinant of the distribution pattern of a population?
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

a.) rate of population growth

Explanation:

The population growth rate determines how a population will be distributed in a region. Populations with a high growth rate need to occupy more spaces, in addition to needing to consume a greater volume of natural resources. As the population grows, the distribution in the region becomes more intense, the opposite also happens. When the population growth rate indicates that the population is decreasing it means that this population will need less space and therefore, its geographic distribution will be smaller, as well as its impact on the region.
