Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The three basic processes of concern to demographers are fertility (births), mortality (deaths), and migration (movement of people). These three processes are important to understand population dynamics and changes over time. Option A is incorrect because health and income, while important factors, are not considered as basic processes of demography. Option C is incorrect because "childbirth rates" is synonymous with fertility, and "region" is not a basic process. Option D is incorrect because morbidity (illness) is not a basic process, and average life expectancy is related to mortality. Therefore, the best answer is B.
