Answer 1

The correct analysis of a stationary population pyramid is:

The younger generations are replacing the older generations at an equal rate.

This is indicative of a stable population where the birth and death rates are roughly equal, leading to a balanced demographic structure across age groups. In a stationary population, there is typically no significant growth or decline, and the proportions of different age groups remain relatively constant over time.
