Accepted Answer

Hey everyone, let's take a look at this question together, transition of a population from high birth and death rates to low birth and death rates is called what? So when we're dealing with the birth and death rates of a population, we know that we could be talking about its demographic and demographic has to do with several different factors of a population, such as age or species type and even the birth and death rates of that population. And so when we're talking about the transition of that demographic, we're talking about answer choice. E demographic transition which we also know demographic transition has to do with the model of a population that shows that change from the high birth and death rates to the low birth and death rates. Making answer choice C. The correct answer. We also know that the high birth and death rate change to the low birth and death rate showcases the stabilization of the population. Thus reinforcing answer choice C. Is the correct answer. And we can also eliminate answer choice A because we know that ecological footprint is the amount of land that is needed or a populations or pop beauty or even and individual. So that has nothing to do with the transition of birth and death rates to low birth and death rates and then answer choice B. Obviously population growth is that change in population size. So that's incorrect. And then lastly, replacement rate has to do with the fertility rate at which women give birth to enough Children to sustain the population. So answer choice C. Is the only one here that describes the transition of a population from high birth and death rates too low birth and death rates. I hope you found this video to be helpful. Thank you and goodbye.
