The correct answer is: depicts how populations change over time.
The Demographic Transition Model is a graphical representation that depicts how populations change over time based on historical data. It illustrates the transition from high birth rates and high death rates to low birth rates and low death rates in a population over time.
To arrive at this answer, you can eliminate the other options:
- The Demographic Transition Model is not based solely on the historical experience of the Third World. It is based on population trends observed globally.
- The Demographic Transition Model does not predict the world's population in a specific year, such as 2002. It is a framework for understanding population changes over time.
- The Demographic Transition Model does not explicitly support the overpopulation perspective. It simply provides a way to understand population dynamics and does not necessarily advocate for any particular viewpoint.
By process of elimination, we can conclude that the correct answer is that the Demographic Transition Model depicts how populations change over time.
