A line graph captioned 'The Demographic Transition' is plotted between 'Time' in years in x-axis and 'Birth/Death Rates' in y-axis. Blue line represents birth rate and red line represents death rate. The line-graphs are flat initially, then goes down exponentially and goes flat in the end. The graph is divided into three stages as:
Stage I: The birth rate and death rate are very high.
Stage II: The death rate begins to fall but the birth rates remains high for a time.
Stage III: The birth rate falls to meet the death rate.
