Finals 1

Question 1

A is defined as a group of organisms of the
same species

Answer 1

population

Question 2

It is a field that tracks factors related to changes
in population such as fertility rate and life
expectancy.

Answer 2

POPULATION DYNAMICS

Question 3

is a condition when an organism
number exceeds the carrying capacity of its habitat

Answer 3

Over population

Question 4

is not a function of size or density it
is determined using the ratio of population to
available resources

Answer 4

Over population

Question 5

To determine if an area is overpopulated, several
factors and indicators are typically considered:

Answer 5

1. Population Density:
2. Resource Availability:
3. Environmental Degradation:
4. Living Standards:
5. Infrastructure Strain:
6. Employment Opportunities:
7. Health Indicators:

Question 6

This measures the number of people per unit area (e.g.,
per square kilometer or mile). High
can be a sign of overpopulation, especially if it exceeds
the area’s capacity to provide resources and services.

Answer 6

Population Density:

Question 7

Overpopulation often leads to strain on essential
resources like food, water, and energy. If the demand
for these resources exceeds what the area can
sustainably provide, it may indicate overpopulation.

Answer 7

Resource Availability:

Question 8

Overpopulated areas often show signs of
environmental stress, such as deforestation, pollution,
soil depletion, and loss of biodiversity, due to excessive
use of natural resources.

Answer 8

Environmental Degradation:

Question 9

In overpopulated regions, living conditions may
decline, including increased poverty, lack of housing,
overcrowded schools and hospitals, and inadequate
sanitation.

Answer 9

Living Standards:

Question 10

Overpopulation can overload infrastructure like roads,
public transport, sewage systems, and healthcare
facilities, resulting in congestion and reduced service
quality.

Answer 10

Infrastructure Strain:

Question 11

High population growth with limited job opportunities
can lead to high unemployment or underemployment,
which may signal that an area has more people than it
can economically support.

Answer 11

Employment Opportunities:

Question 12

:
High rates of diseases, malnutrition, and poor
healthcare access can indicate overpopulation, as these
issues may result from inadequate resources and
services.

Answer 12

Health Indicators

Question 13

COMPONENTS OF POPULATION DYNAMICS

Answer 13

BIRTH RATE
DEATH RATE
FERTILITY RATE
NET MIGRATION
RATE

Question 14

The total number of lives per 1000 in a population
in a year or period
▪ is usually given as the number of
births divided by the average population

Answer 14

BIRTH RATE

Question 15

Determinant of high birth rate

Answer 15

Early marriage
Lack of public information
on family planning
Cultural and
Religious Belief
Government Policies

Question 16

▪ The ratio of to the population of a
particular periods of time, usually calculated
as the number of death per thousand
people per year

Answer 16

DEATH RATE/MORTALITY RATE

Question 17

Determinant of high death rate

Answer 17

Insufficient nutrition
A high incidence of
infectious disease
Drug addiction among
pregnant woman
High birth rate among
teenager
Natural Disaster

Question 18

The number of children who would be born per
woman if she/they were pass through the child
bearing years bearing children according to current
schedule of age specific.

Answer 18

TOTAL FERTILITY RATE

Question 19

means number of live births
per 1000 woman between the age of 15 to 44
years

Answer 19

FERTILITY RATE

Question 20

How is population measured

Answer 20

Census:
Sample Surveys:
Vital Statistics:

Question 21

The movement of people into (immigration) & out
(emigration) of specific geographic areas

Answer 21

MIGRATION

Question 22

is the most comprehensive method of
population measurement. Conducted every 5 to 10 years in
many countries, it aims to count every individual in a
defined area, gathering information on age, gender,
occupation, education, and other demographic factors. This
data provides a baseline for understanding population size,
distribution, and characteristics.

Answer 22

census

Question 23

help
track changes in population and demographic trends. These
surveys, like the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) or
national household surveys, collect data from representative
samples and use statistical methods to estimate characteristics
of the broader population.

Answer 23

sample surveys

Question 24

: Birth and death records, marriage and divorce
rates, and migration data contribute to population estimates.
Many countries maintain civil registration systems that log
births, deaths, and other life events, allowing governments to
track population changes over time.

Answer 24

Vital Statistics

Question 25

How is population can be calculated

Answer 25

Population Change=(Births−Deaths)+(Immigration−Emigration)

Question 26

Calculated by subtracting the number of deaths from
the number of births. This represents the change due to natural events
within the population.Natural Increase: Calculated by subtracting the number of deaths from
the number of births. This represents the change due to natural events
within the population.

Answer 26

Natural Increase:

Question 27

Calculated by subtracting the number of people who
leave the area (emigration) from those who move in (immigration).
Immigration: People moving into the area from elsewhere

Answer 27

Net Migration:

Question 28

▪ Crude Birth rate.
▪ Crude Death Rate
▪ Rate of Natural Increase

Answer 28

Measures of population changes are

Question 29

is the childbirths per 1000 people
per year

Answer 29

Crude Birth rate
