The rate at which babies die before they reach one year old is referred to as the Infant Mortality Rate (IMR). As of recent data, the global average IMR is approximately 29 deaths per 1,000 live births, though this rate varies significantly by country and region. Factors influencing IMR include access to healthcare, maternal health, nutrition, and socioeconomic conditions. Efforts to reduce IMR focus on improving healthcare access, prenatal care, and education about infant health.

What is the major factor that determines population growth?

To have population growth, you must have more babies being born than more people dying in a country. If you have more of a death rate (the amount of people dying each year) than a birth rate (the amount of babies being born each year) then you will have a declining popualtion, that if gets out of hand, may cause underpopulation. If the amount of babies being born is too high compared to the among of people dying, then there may be a problem when it comes ot overpopulation. The major factor is 'crude birth rate', or the amount of babies being born each year over the amount of people dying each year. There are other factors as well if you would like to know, such as the education rate (if the mothers do not know how to keep themselves from getting pregnant, then more babies will be born) as well as life expectancy (if the babies are being born later, than more parents will die sooner) and westernization (when a country has a good economy, more women are choosing jobs over having families).
