Answer 1

Answer:

This pyramid indicates that population growth in Denmark is relatively stable. (A)

Explanation:

Denmark's population pyramid is slightly 'thicker' in the middle part than in lower (base) part. This shows that country is economically developed and it has lot of work force (population between 15 and 65 years old). Younger population (under 15 yo) is smaller, as it is visible.

In this case, birth rate and death rate are near equal, so that makes population growth in Denmark pretty stable.
