• You may be able to give specific examples of countries at different stages of the demographic cycle

Stages• Stage 1
Birth rate and death rate are high - low natural increase - low total population
• Stage 2 Birth rate is high - death rate is falling - high natural increase (population growth)
• Stage 3
• Falling birth rate - low death rate - high natural increase (population growth)
• Stage 4Birth rate and death rate is low - low natural increase - high total population
