APES EXAM REVIEW TOPIC #3
World population = 7.3 BILLION U.S. population = 320 MILLION Top 5 most populous countries: China, India, U.S., Indonesia, Pakistan
b. Exponential Growth (J-curve) a. Linear Growth
1. China 2. India 3. United States 4. Indonesia
Doubling Time = 70 / r (r is % population growth rate) Use the number in front of the % - DO NOT change it to a decimal!!!
Doubling Time = 70 / r (r is % population growth rate) Doubling Time = 70 / 2 = 35 years
Doubling Time = 70 / r (r is % population growth rate) Doubling Time = 70 / 2 = 35 years a) = 2047 (year that population will double from 50,000 to 100,000)
Doubling Time = 70 / r (r is % population growth rate) Doubling Time = 70 / 2 = 35 years a) = 2047 (year that population will double from 50,000 to 100,000) b) = 2082 (year that population will double from 100,000 to 200,000)
Doubling Time = 70 / r (r is % population growth rate) Population doubled from 12 million to 24 million in 20 years
Doubling Time = 70 / r (r is % population growth rate) Population doubled from 12 million to 24 million in 20 years 20 = 70 / r r = 3.5%

Average number of children born to women in a population during their reproductive years. 1.6 developed countries 2.8 developing countries
TFR =
Average number of children couples in a population must bear to replace themselves. 2.1 developed countries 2.5 developing countries
# children per 1000 live births that die before age 1. One of the best indicators of quality of life in a country.
# live births per 1000 people in a population in a given year.
# deaths per 1000 people in a population in a given year.
(S-curve) Carrying Capacity (K)
Population Change = (immigration + births) – (emigration + deaths)
Crude birth rate of 45: 45/1000 = = 4.5% Crude death rate of 20: 20/1000 = = 2.0%
Population Change = (immigration + births) – (emigration + deaths) Population Change = (1% + 4.5%) – (0.5% + 2.0%) = 5.5% - 2.5% = 3.0%
