A country transitions from high birth and death rates to low birth and death rates during industrialization.

According to the demographic transition model, what typically happens to the population size during the middle stages?

  1. The population size increases rapidly as the death rate falls while the birth rate remains high.
  2. The population size is determined solely by immigration rather than by these vital rates.
  3. The population size remains essentially stable as birth and death rates fall together in close synchrony.
  4. The population size decreases as the birth rate falls much faster than the already-declining death rate.
