Demographic Transition Model Review

For every 1,000 babies born in Mozambique this year, nearly 150 of them will die before they reach their 1st birthday. The rate of 150 deaths per 1,000 births is known as the:

• crude death rate.
• crude birth rate.
• total fertility rate.
• infant mortality rate.

Rapidly declining Death Rates are found in which stage of the Demographic Transition Model?

• Stage 1

• Stage 2

• Stage 3

• Stage 4

More economically developed countries (MEDCs) moved from Stage 1 to Stage 2 of the Demographic Transition Model 200 years ago in part because of:

• the First Agricultural Revolution.

• the Industrial Revolution.

• people moving to cities.

• women choosing to enter the labor force.

The population pyramid of Naples, Florida, is "upside down," because the city has a large percentage of:

• infants.
• females.
• elderly people.
• young people.

A characteristic of stage Three of the Demographic Transition Model shows?

• High birth and death rates

• Low death and high birth rates

• Declining birth and death rates

• High death and low birth rates

A characteristic of stage one of the Demographic Transition Model shows

• High birth and death rates

• Low death and high birth rates

• Low birth and death rates

• High death and low birth rates

A characteristic of stage four of the Demographic Transition Model shows

• High birth and death rates

• Low death and high birth rates

• Low birth and death rates

• High death and low birth rates

Over the past century, the population of the world has been...

• growing even though the fertility rate is decreasing

• growing even though the life expectancy is decreasing

• growing because the fertility rate is increasing

• declining because life expectancy is decreasing
