Answer:

A. the birth rate and the death rate are both relatively low and the population stabilizes

Step-by-step explanation:

The Demographic Transition

This is simply defined as the general way of demographic change usually occuring fro. high birth and death rates to low birth and death rates, and it is said to be observed in the history of developed countries.

Stages of Demographic Transition

Stage 1 of the Demographic Transition Model (DTM)

In this stage, there is present to be a low population growth rate due to a high birth rate that is the number of annual births per one thousand people and a high death rate simply the number of annual deaths per one thousand people.

Stage 2 of the Demographic Transition Model (DTM)

This stage consists of a fast lowering or decrease in a country's death rate, meanwhile, the birth rate remains high. Leading to the total population of a country in Stage 2 rising because births outnumber deaths and simply not because the birth rate is rising.

In Stage 3 of the Demographic Transition Model (DTM)

In this stage, death rates are relatively low and birth rates decrease.

This result in this stage occurs due to improved economic conditions, an increase in women's status and education, and access to contraception etc.

STAGE 4- usually regarded as post Industrial

This includes birth rate droping below replacement level and tthe size of the population begins to decrease also.
