Answer the following questions: Why do we usually express crude birth and death rates per thousand people? Why not give the numbers per person or for the entire population. Some demographers claim that the total world population has already begun to slow, while others dispute this claim. How would you recognize a true demographic transition as opposed in mere random fluctuations in birth and death rates?
The graph shows the world human population size and growth rate over time. How are the two sets of data related to each other? What does studying one data set tell you about the other?
The population of a small country increases exponentially at a rate of 3% per year. Predict what the population will be in 4.5 years if the current population is 1,354,000. Round your answer to the nearest integer.
