What does an "upside down" population pyramid indicate?
lots of children
lots of middle age people
lots of elderly/older people
lots of teens
Stage 2 of the Demographic Transition is characterized by
High growth
Low growth
Zero growth
Negative growth
The country represented by the population pyramid is most likely characterized by
Adequate health care for the elderly
Readily available birth control
Low rates of heart disease
Persistent conflict
Which of the following could be used to determine health care for women and children
crude birth rate
crude death rate
infant mortality rate
life expectancy
natural increase rate
Replacement level, the number of births needed to keep a population at a stable level without immigration, requires a total fertility of _________
10
2.1
3.5
5.0
A population pyramid with a wide base and narrow top is indicative of
developed countries.
countries in Stage IV of the demographic transition.
less developed countries.
low infant mortality.
Country A has a crude birth rate of 60 and a crude death rate of 15, while Country B has a CBR of 27 and a CDR of 9. Which country has a higher natural increase rate?
Country A
Country B
The NIR is the same in both countries
The rate depends on total population, so it can't be computed from this information.
The CDR has no direct correlation to the CBR, so it cannot help determine the NIR
The highest natural increase rates are found in countries in which stage of the demographic transition?
stage 1
stage 2
stage 3
stage 4
stage 5
The problem with using arithmetic population density to investigate the population pattern of a country is that such a density figure does not take into consideration
annual population increases.
internal clustering of people within the country.
annexation of new territory.
possible loss of territory.
If the world's population in 2010 was approximately 7 billion and is expected to reach 14 billion in 45 years. What is the term for the period of 45 years?
Crude Death Rate
Life Expectancy
Doubling Time
Demographic Transition
The seasonal herding of animals from higher elevations in the summer to lower elevations in the winter is known as
Livestock Ranching
Transhumanance
Intercropping
Truck Farming
Which of the following is true of world population?
t
The majority of the world's population lives in Latin America.
The most rapid growth is occurring in less developed countries.
There are fewer people in the world now than in the middle of the 20th century.
People are uniformly distributed across the earth.
The countries of Thailand and Poland have approximately the same arithmetic population density. From this we can conclude that the two countries have about the same

What two ways can we slow population growth and decrease the CDR (Crude Death Rate) and the fertility rate?
education of women and access to contraception
better medicine and economic development
political stability and better medicine
access to contraception and political stability
What does Total Fertility Rate (TFR) measure?
number of deaths per 1000 people in a year
average number of children a woman will have in her lifetime
number of births per 1000 people in a year
number of children that die before the age of one
The Earth's area of permanent human settlement is called
Transhumance
Hot Zone
Ecumene
Civilized world
Physiological Density is the relationship between
birth rates and death rates
farmers and arable land
people and land area
people and resources
Since immigrants generally move from poorer regions to wealthier ones, they often can afford to send money home to their family back home. These are called
Remittances
Push factors
Pull factors
Brain drain
This model incorporates birth, death, and natural increase.

Neo-Malthusians believe that
our continued population will lead to the depletion of nonrenewable resources such as petroleum and metals.
only anti-natalist policies will work to stem the rise of population.
