APENDIX: POPULATION PIRAMID A population pyramid, also called age-sex pyramid and age structure diagram, is a graphical illustration that shows the distribution of various age groups in a human population (typically that of a country or region of the world), which normally forms the shape of a pyramid. It typically consists of two back-to-back bar graphs, with the population on the X-axis and age on the Y-axis, one showing the number of males and one showing females in a particular population in five-year age groups (also called cohorts). Males are conventionally shown on the left and females on the right, and they may be measured by raw number or as a percentage of the total population. A great deal of information about the population broken down by age and sex can be read from a population pyramid, and this can show other aspects of the population. A population pyramid also tells how many people of each age range live in the area. There tends to be more females than males in the older age groups, due to females' longer life expectancy.

Types of population pyramid

While all countries' population pyramids differ, four types have been identified by the fertility and mortality rates of a country. o Stable pyramid - A population pyramid showing an unchanging pattern of fertility and mortality. o Stationary pyramid - A population pyramid typical of countries with low fertility and low mortality, also called a constrictive pyramid. o Expansive pyramid - A population pyramid showing a broad base, indicating a high proportion of children, a rapid rate of population growth, and a low proportion of older people. This wide base indicates a large number of children. A steady upwards narrowing shows that more people die at each higher age band. This type of pyramid indicates a population in which there is a high birth rate, a high death rate and a short life expectancy. This is the typical pattern for less economically developed countries, due to little access to and incentive to use birth control, negative environmental factors (for example, lack of clean water) and poor access to health care. o Constrictive pyramid - A population pyramid showing lower numbers or percentages of younger people. The country will have more people who are generally older. Uses of population pyramids Population pyramids can be used to find the number of economic dependents being supported in a particular population, In short: to observe the natural increase, birth, and death rate. Activities: Answer the following questions: 1. What is a population pyramid? 2. Give another name for population pyramid.
