Answer:

Fertility and mortality of the population are also reflected in the shape of the population pyramid. A broad base and sharply tapering sides (a true pyramid shape) reflects high fertility rates and high mortality rates in younger age groups.

hope this helps

Birth rates are high means there are more people born. This means broad base of population pyramid as there are many children. But high death rate means that more people die. So the pyramid is narrow at the top as there are not many old age people.

Hope you find this helpful!!!!!!!!
