Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The population explosion has primarily occurred in developing countries such as Latin America, Asia, and Africa. These regions have experienced rapid population growth due to factors such as high birth rates, improved health care, and lower infant mortality rates. Developed countries, on the other hand, have largely stabilized their populations through lower birth rates and immigration policies.
