  • Population Pyramid is also called as?
    Age-Sex-Structure
  • It is how the number of people in a given place changes over time (the changes in population that happened to a given place from a given period e.g. 2010 to 2020)
    Population Growth and Decline
  • The rate in which the number of individuals in a population increases in a given time period.
    Growth Rate
  • Indicates that the population is increasing
    Positive Growth Rate
  • Indicates that the population is decreasing
    Negative Growth Rate
  • Indicates that there were the same number of individuals at the beginning and at the end of the period
    Zero Growth Rate
  • A growth rate may be zero even when there are significant changes in the birth, death, immigration dates, and age distribution between the two times.
  • The population is increasing at a rapid rate.
    Fast Growth Rate
  • The population is increasing, but in a slow manner
    Slow Growth Rate
  • The pattern where people are located and why
    Population Distribution
  • Places that contain few people
    Sparsely Populated
  • Places that contain many people
    Densely Populated

    Level
  • Is dynamic (e.g. growth and decline)
