Demographic Transition Model
By applying the demographic transition model, I would assume that Honduras would be included into stage two. Honduras has a birth rate that is higher than the death rate. Honduras shows an increase in the rate of natural increase. Also, Honduras has a rapid death rate compared to the high birth rate. All these characteristics Honduras has demonstrates that it belongs in stage two of the demographic transition model.
