Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The demographic transition is a set of major changes in birth and death rates that has occurred in urban industrial nations in the last 200 years. There are three stages. Stage one is marked by high birth and death rates with a high growth potential in population. Stage two the transitional growth stage is characterized by declining death rates. Population growth is high during this stage. The third stage is characterized by declining birthrates--the stage of incipient decline--and it is possible for population growth rates to decrease.
