Considering the Crude Birth rate is 15/1000 and the crude death rate is 12/1000, then the country is in the .................. stage of demographic transition.
Answer: D
The country is in stage III.
In the demographic transition model, stage I has high birth and death rates (both above about 35 per 1,000), stage II has high birth rates and falling death rates (II (a) early and II (b) late expanding), and the final stage has low birth and low death rates with slow growth.
A crude birth rate of 15 and a crude death rate of 12 per 1,000 are both low, giving natural growth of only 0.3% a year, which marks the low stationary stage, numbered III in this scheme. Stages I and II need birth rates far higher than 15.
