Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
In the preindustrial stage, both birth rates and death rates are high due to limited access to healthcare and high levels of poverty, leading to a lower life expectancy. As societies transition to industrialization and urbanization, access to healthcare and education improves which leads to lower death rates followed by lower birth rates in later stages.
