Answer 2

The correct answer is letter B

Economically, the African continent is known worldwide as the poorest in the world. Most countries have very low monetary wealth - despite the abundance of natural wealth -, with the worst Human Development Indexes on the planet. Of the nations with serious social problems, such as malnutrition, illiteracy and child mortality, most are made up of African countries.

This situation is intensified because African countries are mainly exporters of raw materials. In that case, the countries' economies become very dependent on developed countries. In addition, most of the natural resources are in the possession of a few, which increases the concentration of income and contributes so that the local population does not receive the benefits of the productivity of their lands.
