1. Human populations

2. Aim To understand the factors affecting human population size To review age population pyramids and survival curves To interpret data on demographic transition To complete a summary diagram

3. England population stats What happened here that might cause a dramatic increase in population size?

4. What has caused an increase in human population over the last 300 years in the UK? Development of agriculture Industrial revolution

5. Population size Affected by birth and death rates Immigration and emigration. Can you write an equation to connect these? Pop growth = (births + im) – (deaths + emig)

6. On lined paper - Population size % population growth = Pop change x 100 (in a given period) pop at start Now answer summary question 2 page 23

7. On your whiteboards What factors might affect the birth rate of a population? What factors might affect the death rate of a population?

8. Factors affecting birth rate Economic conditions Cultural and religious background Social pressures and conditions Birth control Political factors Why might values for birth rate in different countries be given per 1000? Copy the equation page 21 for birth rate.

9. Factors affecting death rate Age profile Life expectancy at birth Food supply Medical care Natural disasters War Copy the equation page 21 for death rate

10. Percentage population and age.

11. Age population pyramids

21. Question 3 (a)(i) more people survive to reproductive age; better pre-natal care / health care of mother; better nutrition of mother (ii) better nutrition; better sanitation; (widespread) introduction of health care; better post-natal care (mother or child); vaccination programmes

22. b) i) birth rate decreasing; as the death rate is constant but births minus deaths are falling ii) reduces population growth until 1989/90 as more net emigration; increases population growth from 1989/90 as more net immigration

23. Question 4 a) i) A – high proportion of young, decreasing proportion in successively older groups / low proportion of older people; B – approximately same ii) A - a large base to pyramid / high proportion of young / high birth rate

24. b) birth rate and death rate; emigration and immigration
