Answer 1

The correct option is A a) Expanding Population


Answer-a

Explanation :
Stationary" pyramid:
A population pyramid has roughly equal numbers of people in most age categories, with tapering for older ages. Countries with relatively low constant birth rates and high life quality exhibit a stationary pyramid.
"Expansive" pyramid:
A population pyramid that is very wide at the younger ages, characteristic of countries with high birth rate and low life expectancy.
"Constrictive" pyramid:
A population pyramid that is narrowed at the bottom. The population is generally older on average, as the country has long life expectancy, a low death rate, but also a low birth rate.
