AP HUMAN GEOGRAPHY CHAPTER 4 REVIEW Fundamentals of Population: Location, Distribution, & Density
Is it Crowded in here??? Imagine that the number of students in our AP HGEO Class has doubled. List the effects of this, both positive and negative. Would you like to have more, fewer, or the same number of students in the class as now? WHY? Might any factors change your decision?
With a Partner…(5 min) Please write responses! 1. What are the benefits / drawbacks of a area / society with a large / small population? 2. What effects does Geography itself have on the number of people in a place? 3. What effects does Density have on the ability of a place to provide services to a population?
What is Demography??? KEY THEMES… 1. DISTRIBUTION – total population # vs. where concentrated…
DENSITY Why of Where!!!
Themes Cont’d… 2. GROWTH – Is population growth a problem??? Is population decline a problem??? Carrying Capacity (Matrix Scene)
THE TURNING POINTS… The Agricultural Revolution & THE Industrial Revolution!!!! Before / After Effects on Population?
Themes Cont’d… 3. MIGRATION- Why do people move???
Themes Cont’d… 4. POPULATION POLICIES – Why would a Gov’t want to have controls over its population growth? How might Gov’ts do this??? Should they do this???
UNIT 2 ESSENTIAL Q What does Population tell us about the world, its countries, & their relationships to one another?
CH 4. Guiding Q (Book Notes) How does the distribution and density of population impact quality of life?
World Population Concentrations 1. E. ASIA 2. S. ASIA 3. EUROPE
In USA… 1. E. Coast 2. W. Coast 3. Midwest
MEGALOPOLIS – Cluster of Distinct Major Cities – Forms Large Realm In USA???
BOS NY WASH MORE
BOS NY WASH MORE
Where do we go now? RUST BELT – Decline SUN BELT – Growth
Making the Count Census – Why does a country need to know where its population exactly is???
Population Density- Number of People per unit area (sq. mile) 2 types
World Population Density How does the distribution and density of population impact quality of life?
1. Arithmetic Pop. Den.- Breaks down data evenly Assumes POP. is spread out evenly across all space Misleading??? No country has an evenly distributed population!!!
Arithmetic Pop. Den. Formula Country Pop. / Total Land = People per unit Egypt Pop.= 69.8 million (69,800,000) Egypt land Area = 384.3 thousand sq. mi (384,300) 69.8 / 384.3 = .1816 people per sq. mi. (182) or (just stay consistent!!!) 69,800,000 / 384,300 = 181.6 (182)
People All Over Egypt???
2. Physiological Pop. Den. # of people per unit of ARABLE LAND- Useable land (agriculturally reproductive) NOT mountains, tundra, craters, canyons, desert Accurate reading of where people are located Shows population pressure # ALWAYS Higher!!!
Physiological Pop. Den. FORMULA Country Pop. / Arable land = people per arable unit 1. Have to ask what % of this country’s land is arable (farmable) To find Arable Land: multiply total land by arable land percentage (as a decimal)
Egypt land Area = 384.3 th. sq. mi. (384,300) Egypt % Arable Land = 2% EGYPT PHYSIO. Pop. Den. Egypt Pop.= 69.8 million (69,800,000) Egypt land Area = 384.3 th. sq. mi. (384,300) Egypt % Arable Land = 2% (Decimal Way) (Long Way) Arable Land = 384.3 384300 * .02 = 7.686 * .02 =7686 Total Pop / Arable land = People per Arable U. 69.8 / 7.686 = 9.081 (9081) 69800000 / 7686 = 9081
182 Vs. 9081
