The correct answer is C) there would be more ethnic minorities in the population than whites.

A "majority-minority" nation is one in which the sum of the ethnic minorities (Hispanic, African-American, etc.) is greater than the amount of individuals who are considered white/Caucasian. This shows that only letter C can be correct, as none of the other statements describe a scenario in which the above is true.
