Summary Introduction

To determine: The factors that sustain the rapid population growth of developing countries such as Nigeria, Afghanistan, or Uganda.

Introduction: The changes in a population number could be due to the birth rate, death rate, immigration, and emigration. Birth and immigration lead to add individuals to a population and death and emigration lead to decrease in the number of individuals from a population. A wide gap between the birth and death rate could lead to faster growth in the rate of population.

Summary Introduction

To assess: The likelihood that the fertility rate of developing country will drop in the near future.
