Differentiate between
1st and 5th stage of population transition theory
उत्तर
| Sr. No. | 1st stage of population transition theory | 5th stage of population transition theory |
| 1. | In 1st stage of population transition theory, both birth rate and death rate are high. Hence, population growth is stable. | In 5th stage of population transition theory, the birth rate is very low and almost equals the death rate. Hence, population growth is minimal (could be negative in some countries). |
| 2. | It is high stationary stage of population. | It is declining stage of population. |
| 3. | In this stage, having a greater number of children is considered to be a good idea. | In this stage, the number of children is very low. |
| 4. | The economic condition is poor and country in this stage is not developed. | The economic condition of the country in this stage is very good. |
| 5. | The economy is dependent on agriculture or similar primary occupations. People engaged in secondary and tertiary activities are negligible. | In this stage, tertiary activities contribute the most to the economy of the country. |
| 6. | It is characterised by limited educational opportunities, low sanitation, high occurrence of contagious diseases, lack of medical facilities and malnutrition. | It is characterised by high quality educational and medical facilities, healthy environment and pleasant life. |
| 7. | At present, no country falls in this stage. | Sweden and Finland are presently in this stage. |
