Explanation:
The population pyramid represents the breakdown of the population by gender and age at a given point in time. It consists of two histograms, one for each gender (by convention, men on the left and women on the right) where the numbers are shown horizontally and the ages vertically.
A population pyramid can be used to compare differences between male and female populations of an area. They also show the number of dependents (children and, sometimes, elderly people) and general structure of the population at any given moment.
