  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    A ________ provides us information regarding the population of the country.
    Solution
    • Census means the official process of counting the number of people in a country, city, or town and collecting information .
    • An official periodic count of a population including such information as sex, age, occupation, etc.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    ______ means the number of people in different age groups in a given population.
    Solution
    The Age structure means the number of people in different age groups in a given population.
    The age structure of a population is an important factor in population dynamics. Age structure is the proportion of a population in different age classes. Models that incorporate age structure allow better prediction of population growth, plus the ability to associate this growth with the level of economic development in a region. 

    Countries with rapid growth have a pyramidal shape in their age structure diagrams, showing a preponderance of younger individuals, many of whom are of reproductive age. This pattern is most often observed in underdeveloped countries where individuals do not live to old age because of less-than-optimal living conditions, and there is a high birth rate. 

    Age structures of areas with slow growth, including developed countries such as the United States, still have a pyramidal structure, but with many fewer young and reproductive-aged individuals and a greater proportion of older individuals. Other developed countries, such as Italy, have zero population growth. 

    The age structure of these populations is more conical, with an even greater percentage of middle-aged and older individuals. The actual growth rates in different countries are with the highest rates tending to be in the less economically developed countries of Africa and Asia.

  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    The major components of population growth are birth rates, death rates and ____________.
    Solution
    The major components of population growth are birth rates, death rates and migration. The natural increase of population is the difference between birth rates and death rates.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    ___________ is the movement of people into and out of an area or country.
    Solution
    Human migration is the movement by people from one place to another with the intention of settling, temporarily or permanently in a new location. The movement is often over long distances and from one country to another, but internal migration is also possible and indeed, this is the dominant form globally. Migration may be by individuals, family units or in large groups.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    _________ is the number of deaths per thousand persons in a year.
    Solution
    C.  Death Rate

    The number of deaths in the population divided by the average population (or the population at midyear) is the crude death rate. A death rate can also be tabulated according to age or cause. Death rate is the ratio of total deaths to total population in a specified community or area over a specified period of time. The death rate is often expressed as the number of deaths per 1,000 of the population per year. 

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Internal migration does not change the size of the population but influences the distribution of population ________ the nation.
    Solution
    Internal migration does not change the size of the population, but influences the distribution of the population within the nation. Migration plays a very significant role in changing the composition and distribution of population
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    _______ is the number of live births per thousand persons in a year.
    Solution
    A.  Birth Rate

    The  proportion of births to the total population in a place in a given time, usually expressed as a quantity per 1000 of population. The birth rate is usually given as the number of live births divided by the average population (or the population at midyear). This is termed the crude birth rate.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    The natural increase of population is the difference between birth rates and _________.
    Solution
    Natural increase. Put simply, natural increase is the difference between the numbers of births and deaths in a population; the rate of natural increase is the difference between the birthrate and the death rate.
  • Question 9
