Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Russia currently has higher death rates than most developed countries. This is due to factors such as high levels of alcoholism, inadequate healthcare, and a high proportion of elderly citizens. The other choices are incorrect as Russia has actually experienced a decrease in fertility rates and family size, relatively low rates of immigration, and while infant mortality rates have improved, they are not yet on par with other developed nations.
