Question

describe the uses of population composition

Answer 1

Population composition. Population composition is the description of population defined by characteristics such as age, race, sex or marital status. This data is often compared using a population pyramid.

Answer 2

Answer :

A population pyramid in which the base is broad and the top part is narrow means that although a large amount of births take place, not all grow up to be adults and old; it means many die before reaching these ages. This indicates a large death rate and Kenya shows such a pyramid. This means a high population growth rate.

In countries like India, the death rate is decreasing, so the pyramid is broad in the younger age groups, and the size of the pyramid decreases steadily.
