7. Human Population Dynamics United States vs. Angola Your Name Slide 1

8. United States vs. Angola 2011 Compare the shape of the two population pyramids. Why are they different? Go to the website and look at country summary for each of your countries for info like population size, life expectancy, and infant mortality Slide 2

9. Slide 3 United States 2011 vs. 2030 Cut and paste the population pyramids for 2011 and 2030 for developed country. Compare/contrast these two pyramids. For example: Total population Life expectancy Infant mortality

10. Angola 2011 vs. 2030 Slide 4 Cut and paste the pyramids for 2011 and 2030 for underdeveloped country. Compare/contrast these pyramids. For example: Total population Life expectancy Infant Mortality

11. Three Factors Affecting Angola’s Population Next, do a database search of your underdeveloped country and find three factors that might explain why they have a short life expectancy or high infant mortality. For Example: –Annual income per capita –Agricultural resources –Exports –Per capita medical expenses A good site to use is NationMaster.com: http://www.nationmaster.com/index.php http://www.nationmaster.com/index.php Slide 5

12. Can technology change the population pyramid? Research and explain how a technological advancement could change the population pyramid of your underdeveloped country For Example: –What technology could decrease infant mortality? –How would it impact the population by 2030? Slide 6

13. Works Cited Be sure to cite any sources (websites) you used in any of your research You must use at least 3 sources Source #1 Source #2 Source #3 Slide 7
