In Stage Two of the demographic transition, the rate of natural increase is low because death rates tend to rise while birth rat
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

B. False.

Explanation:

Stage 2 of the Demographic Transition Model (DTM) is characterized by a rapid decrease in a country’s death rate while the birth rate remains high. As such, the total population of a country in Stage 2 will rise because births outnumber deaths, not because the birth rate is rising. The decrease in death rate is commonly attributed to significant improvements in overall health, specifically access to pediatric care, which affects the life expectancy of the most at-risk demographic group — children. But along with basic healthcare, an expanded education system, gender equality, and technological advances in the areas of food production and sanitation also work to decrease the death rate.

The New Jersey Plan called for a Congress consisting of
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Single house congress.

Explanation:

The New Jersey Plan is also known as Paterson plan or Small state plan and it is a proposal presented on the 15th of June, 1787 at the Constitutional Convention by William Paterson. William Paterson was the second governor of New Jersey and a co-signer of the Constitution of the United States of America.

Basically, the New Jersey Plan presented a proposed template (plan) for the structure of the government of the United States of America.

The New Jersey Plan called for a Congress consisting of a single (one) house congress i.e a unicameral legislature.

However, the New Jersey Plan was rejected at the Constitutional Convention while the Virginia Plan was adopted.

The Virginia Plan plan was drafted by James Madison in 1787 and it called for a legislature divided into two bodies (the Senate and the House of Representatives) with proportional representation in each state.

A bicameral legislative branch in which each state would be represented in proportion to their contribution or the number of people living in the state was proposed by The Virginia Plan.

Thus, States with large population would have more representatives in chambers than smaller states.
