Answer: D. demographers
Explanation:
When planning for the future of a city, the urban planners need to ensure that the city is able to afford its current and future residents with the facilities needed to provide them with the maximum welfare possible.
To do this the urban planners should reach out to demographers. Demographers study human populations with a view to analyse and ascertain various characteristics such as size, composition, how they are distributed within a geopolitical zone and most importantly, how they will change overtime.
For urban planners to plan for a city that will take care of future residents as well, they would need to know how the kind of future residents they are planning for and this is when they will turn to demographers whose job it is to study and possibly predict future population.

Answer:
This passage is mainly about asteroids striking Earth.
Explanation:
The presented passage is mostly focusing on asteroids striking Earth. It is something that has been happening since Earth has formed, and it will happen in the future as well. The vast majority of the asteroids don't really have any impact on Earth, but some have an impact that is devastating and long-lasting.
In the earlier stages of Earth, many more asteroids were falling on the surface, and the main reason for that has been the lack of atmosphere or a very thin atmosphere. As the atmosphere started to take shape and became similar to what is nowadays, the asteroid impacts decreased significantly because the atmosphere was managing to burn them and break them apart. This is not possible with all asteroids though, as some are so big and fall under an angle where the atmosphere doesn't really have any impact on them so when they fall on the surface they are able to cause sudden climatic changes, mass devastation, and mass extinction of species. Such an asteroid will be in a direction to hit Earth in the future for sure, the question remains will humans with their technology be able to prevent an impact or not.
