Population Pyramids

 Population pyramids are used to show the age & sex structure of countries.  They are very useful for comparing countries & looking at how the population structure of a country changes over time.  Population pyramids can give an indication of the stage of development of a country

Costa Rica Population Pyramids

UK Population Pyramids

Tasks 1)Complete pyramids & explanations (p.353 Waugh). 2)Using the population data complete a population pyramid for Costa Rica & one for Cambodia. 3)You will need to add a % column before you can start drawing the pyramid. 4)For each pyramid: describe the shape & explain why it is this shape.
