Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Typically, population growth rates are higher in low-income countries due to a lack of access to birth control and family planning, high infant mortality rates, and cultural attitudes toward large families. Additionally, low-income countries may have less developed health care systems and a higher incidence of contagious diseases, leading to higher birth rates to maintain population stability.
