the government of a small country has announced that they have a goal of stable population numbers. what will the government need to balance to achieve this goal?
a age and gender distribution
b ethnicity and race percentages
c fertility and mortality rates
d population distribution

Explanation:

A stable population requires that the number of people being born (linked to fertility rates) equals the number of people dying (linked to mortality rates). Other factors like age/gender distribution, ethnicity/race percentages, or population distribution do not directly balance to keep total population numbers stable.

Answer:

c. fertility and mortality rates
