Consider a population which is changing from one generation to the next as per the equation N(t) = R*N(t-1), where N(t) represents the size of the population at time t and R is a constant growth parameter. Under what condition is the population likely to go extinct?

#Section 2: Evolution
The demographic transition model depicts demographic changes from high- to low-level births and deaths in five stages
Stage 1 is characterized by total population numbers are low and the high birth rate is balanced by the high death rate.
B) Stage 2 is characterized by high population growth rate is results of high birth rate however, decline death rate
C) Stage 4 is characterized by decline in the proportion of the population in the reproductive age group and these changes stabilizes population size
D) Stage 3 is characterized by falling birth rates and death rates and population growth rate is zero due to the less numbers of people in the reproductive age group
