Answer:

The answer is B) Growth

Explanation:

The phenomenon and theory of the demographic transition refers to the historical shift in demographics from high birth rates and high infant death rates in societies with minimal technology, education (especially of women) and economic development, to demographics of low birth rates and low death rates in societies with advanced technology, education and economic development, as well as the stages between these two scenarios. Although this shift has occurred in many industrialized countries, the theory and model are frequently imprecise when applied to individual countries due to specific social, political and economic factors affecting particular populations.

Thomson's second stage  leads to a fall in death rates and an increase in population.

The decline in the death rate is due initially to two factors:

   First, improvements in the food supply brought about by higher yields in agricultural practices and better transportation reduce death due to starvation and lack of water. Agricultural improvements included crop rotation, selective breeding, and seed drill technology.

   Second, significant improvements in public health reduce mortality, particularly in childhood. These are not so many medical breakthroughs (Europe passed through stage two before the advances of the mid-twentieth century, although there was significant medical progress in the nineteenth century, such as the development of vaccination) as they are improvements in water supply, sewerage, food handling, and general personal hygiene following from growing scientific knowledge of the causes of disease and the improved education and social status of mothers.

<em>The correct choice is option B. Growth</em>

The American demographer Warren Thompson observed changes, or transitions, in birth and death rates in industrialized societies over the previous 200 years, as a result of such observations he proposed, in 1929, a theory called Demographic transition (DT). This theory explains the transition from high birth and death rates, in pre-industrial economic systems, to lower birth and death rates in industrialized economic systems.

This demographic transition theory involves four stages. Specifically,<em> the second stage is characterized by a fall in death rates due to improvements in food supply and sanitation, which leads to an increase (or growth) in population as well as in life expectancies. </em>

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Nonprofit organization.

Explanation:

As the exercise hints, what Dr. Gomez aims to start is a nonprofit organization (NPO); which is a non business entity whose aim is to help a particular movement, social cause, etc. His goal is to help low-income individuals in the United States with medical assistance at no cost with an NPO called "Doctor Help", who would kindly help those in need that can't afford medical aid otherwise. What characterises an NPO is that they do not keep the surplus of money that they receive, but they re-invest it until they achieve their goal, they do not aim to make a profit.
