The top six population agglomerations are (in order): 1. [blank_start]East Asia[blank_end] 2. [blank_start]South Asia[blank_end] 3. [blank_start]Europe[blank_end] 4. [blank_start]Southeast Asia[blank_end] 5. [blank_start]Northeast North America[blank_end] 6. [blank_start]West Africa[blank_end]

Disease diffusion terms: Endemic means [blank_start]local[blank_end] Epidemic means [blank_start]regional[blank_end] Pandemic means [blank_start]global[blank_end]

East Asia:

South Asia:

Europe:

Emerging Population Cocnentrations include

Southeast Asia

Northeast North America is the most urbanized concentration

West Africa has 2% of world population, mostly agriculture, half of it being in [blank_start]Nigeria[blank_end]

MDC's have a [blank_start]lower[blank_end] agricultural density because they have [blank_start]more[blank_end] technology and money.

Demographic Transition Model (Use: high, low, increase, decrease, or remain unaffected) Stage 1: Birth rates are [blank_start]high[blank_end] and death rates are [blank_start]high[blank_end] Stage 2: Birth rates [blank_start]remain unaffected[blank_end] and death rates [blank_start]decrease[blank_end] Stage 3: Birth rates [blank_start]decrease[blank_end] and death rates continue to [blank_start]decrease[blank_end] less rapidly Stage 4: Birth are [blank_start]low[blank_end] and death rates are [blank_start]low[blank_end]

Which are good indicators of development?

Demographic equation is: (use + - and =) Births [blank_start]-[blank_end] deaths [blank_start]+[blank_end] net migration [blank_start]=[blank_end] population growth

Which measure population growth?

NIR [blank_start]declined[blank_end] between 1950 and 2000, but the annual increase [blank_start]remained steady[blank_end]. Why? [blank_start]Demographic momentum.[blank_end]

Select all that are true for stage 1 of the DMT:

Select all that are true for stage 2:

IMR is worst in [blank_start]LDC's[blank_end] and the best in [blank_start]MDC's[blank_end]

Select all that are true for stage 3:

Select all that are true for stage 4:

Select all that are true for STAGE 5?

Epidemiological transition was proposed by [blank_start]Abdel Omran[blank_end] in 1971 Stage 1: [blank_start]infectious[blank_end] disease, animal [blank_start]attacks[blank_end] Stage 2: Receding [blank_start]pandemics[blank_end] Stage 3: Human created diseases [blank_start]heart disease[blank_end] Stage 4: Delayed diseases like [blank_start]cancer[blank_end] Stage 5: [blank_start]Reemergence[blank_end] of infectious diseases like AIDS and Malaria due to space-time [blank_start]compression[blank_end]

Life expectancy is [blank_start]shorter[blank_end] in stages 1 and 2, but it [blank_start]increases[blank_end] through 3, 4 and 5.

Men live longer than women

What two things do you always check on a population pyramid?

Population Pyramids and DTM [blank_start]Stage 1:[blank_end] Wide base and narrows very quickly [blank_start]Stage 2:[blank_end] Wide base, but wider and taller at top because people are living longer [blank_start]Stage 4:[blank_end] Small base and small top, bulged in middle [blank_start]Stage 3:[blank_end] Domed shaped

Effects of slow population growth include:

Effects of rapid population growth include:

Thomas was an [blank_start]English[blank_end] [blank_start]economist[blank_end] who said that the world's rate of population [blank_start]increase[blank_end] was outrunning [blank_start]food[blank_end] production because population grows [blank_start]geometrically[blank_end] and food expands [blank_start]arithmetically.[blank_end]

Evidence that supports Malthus's beliefs include...

Evidence that opposes Malthus's beliefs include...

Which is not a non-ecumene area?

The replacement fertility rate in MDC's where there is zero population growth is [blank_start]2.1[blank_end]
