Question

Give a geographical reason:

Secondary and tertiary activities increase in the third stage of demographic transition.

Answer in Brief

Solution

  • In Stage 3 of demographic transition theory, the growth rate of the population decreases.
  • As a result, the income of the people in the country reaches the above subsistence level. The poverty rate decreases, and the standard of living increases. Therefore, the use of technology increases, and this generates employment in secondary and tertiary activities.
  • Due to an increase in education level and the development of health facilities, there is an increase in employment in the tertiary sector.
  • Thus, secondary and tertiary activities increase in the third stage of the demographic transition.
