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>

barxatty [35]

Observational research is required to be conducted if someone wants to see whether, when seated next to their closest friends in the cafeteria, students were more likely to spill ketchup on themselves or not.

Moreo about Observational research:

In observational research, people and phenomena are observed in their most natural environments. Instead of using organised environments like study labs or focus groups, this allows researchers to observe how their participants make decisions and respond to circumstances in their everyday lives.

The study of non-experimental circumstances in which behaviour is observed and noted is referred to as observational research. The phrase "what really is going on or what's he doing" could also be used. The variables are neither controlled nor manipulated, hence the study is categorised as non-experimental.

How often can you be called for jury duty in texas?
weqwewe [10]
The call of jury duty in Texas will differ significantly for summoned jurors despite the fact the jury selection process may require your attendance for a day or a fraction of a day. The jury duty general lasts about one week and the majority usually more than two thirds of all summoned jurors are not essentially designated for service. As a result, their duty ends after a short time with the accomplishment of the jury selection process. For those juror who are designated to serve in a jury panel, the judge and the attorneys will estimate how long that trial will last.

How are oral traditions and cultural values connected?
nevsk [136]

Hello there

the answer is

It seems to me that those cultures which have an oral rather than a written tradition have rather sophisticated ways of memorising certain things. Many of them are strongly attached to land which is the basis of not only their livelihood, but also their spiritual beliefs.


Basically, from my limited understanding, the land then acts as a “map” for many things, from the surrounding geography through to a “map” of their spiritual beliefs. As land has lots of identifying markers, this then acts as an aid to remembering most details of the lives of people from such cultural traditions.
