The statement that best describes the population of the indigenous people is:
A. People on most Pacific Islands are indigenous, while in Australia the Aborigines make up a minority of the population.
This statement accurately reflects the indigenous populations in the respective regions. The Maori are a significant group in New Zealand, but they do not make up the majority of the population. The Aborigines are indeed a minority in Australia.
