2.3 Flashcards
we have not learned enough to make another study guide whyyyyyyyy
What are the birth rates, death rates, and population growth rates at each stage of development?
In the first stage, the birth rate is high, the death rate is high, and the population growth is slow. In the second stage, the birth rate is high, the death rate falls quickly, and the population growth is very fast. In the third stage, the birth rate is steadily decreasing, the death rate starts to slow down in falling, and population growth starts to slow down. In the fourth stage, the birth rate is low, the death rate is low, and population growth is falling. In the fifth and final stage, the birth rate can rise or fall again, the death rate is low, and population growth doesn’t change in a very noticeable way.
How high are the CO2 emissions from the USA and Germany, more developed nations, and Mozambique and Bangladesh, developing nations?
13.03 metric tons from the US, 7.26 metric tons from Germany, 0.22 metric tons from Mozambique, and 0.51 metric tons from Bolivia.
What is the life expectancy for the USA, Germany, Bolivia, and Mozambique separately?
76.33 years in the USA, 80.9 years in Germany, 63.63 years in Bolivia, and 59.32 years in Mozambique.
What amounts are higher in developed countries vs. developing countries?
The GDP per capita, life expectancy, literacy rate, CO2 emissions, and annual freshwater withdrawals are usually higher in developed countries. Mortality rate for infants and percent who cannot afford a healthy diet is usually higher in developing countries.
How can age structure diagrams be used to predict population growth?
When there are more people in the age group of 15-39, it is likely that there will be more population growth in the future.
Do developed or developing countries have higher population growth? Which countries use more resources?
Developing countries typically have higher population growth, and developed countries use more resources.
