4. POPULATION PYRAMIDS
Pictorial presentation of 3 Factors (Influence Population)
Births
Deaths
Migration
5. Features (Population Pyramids)
In terms of its composition by:-
Age, Sex
Males (on Left side)
Females (on Right side)
Children (at bottom)
Elders (at Top)
Adjoining bars
(contribution of each age, Sex group)
6. EXAMPLE
Developing Country Developed Countries
(Pakistan) (Sweden)
Base: Broad (High Birth rate) Base: Narrow (Low Birth rate)
Top: Narrow / Acute apex Middle: Bulge (Convex border)
(No: of Elders (Less) Top: Obtuse apex
(More Elders)
High Dependency rate Low Dependency rate
Bad effect (on Economy) Good effect (on Economy)
Unproductive (Half Pop) Productive ( More than Half Pop)
Under 15 Ys: ---- 44% Pop: Under 15 Ys: ---- 25% Pop:
B/w 15- 64 Ys: 52% Pop: Above 15 Ys: ---- 75% Pop:
11. DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS
Population unevenly distributed with
very densely populated areas very sparsely populated areas.
All countries in region have a positive rate of
natural population change.
12. DEMOGRAPHIC TRANSITION
Growth Rate (%) Grading of population increase
0 ( Zero) Stationary Growth (No Growth)
0 to 0.5 Slow Growth
0.5 to 1 Moderate Growth
1 to 1.5 Rapid Growth
1.5 to 2.0 Very Rapid Growth
>2 Explosive Growth ( Population
explosion) OR Population Bomb
13. DEMOGRAPHIC TRANSITION
3 TYPES
1. Old balance
Fertility Mortality
2. New balance
Fertility Mortality
3. Imbalance
Fertility Mortality
