Q. Arrange the following specific stages of demographic transition associated with economic development:

1. Low birth rate with low death rate
2. High birth rate with high death rate
3. High birth rate with low death rate

Select the correct sequence using the codes given below:
Answer: 2, 3, 1
Notes: The standard order of demographic transition stages is: (2) High birth rate with high death rate (pre-industrial stage, low growth), (3) High birth rate with low death rate (developing stage, population rises rapidly), (1) Low birth rate with low death rate (developed stage, stabilization). Thus, the correct sequence is 2, 3, 1.
