Use the figure below and your knowledge of survivorship curves.  Do these human populations have a type 1, 2, or 3 curve?  What are the major differences between the survivorship curves in the 1700’s and 1800’s?  What do you predict the survivorship curve would look like in the 2000’s in comparison to these?
