I need to find the missing word.

Increased birthrates and immigration account for an increase in population. Decreased death rates also account for an increase in population.

well i thank the human population is going down but coming up at the same time. people die all the time in iraq but babys are born all the time in the united states.

yes that's right

According to the theory of demographic transition, why do birth rates fall during the third stage

To find the missing word, let's look at the context provided in the sentence and the information given. The sentence says that an increase in population could result from three factors: increased birth rate, increased __________, or immigration.

Based on the information provided, two factors that contribute to an increase in population are already mentioned: increased birth rate and immigration. The missing word should be a factor that can also contribute to an increase in population.

In the given response, the person mentioned that "decreased death rates also account for an increase in population." This fits the context, so the missing word should be "decreased."

Therefore, the completed sentence should read: "An increase in population could result from increased birth rate, increased decreased death rates, or immigration."
