1. 1 The number of people born per 1000 of the population. The Number of people who die per 1000 of the population. The average age a person can expect to live to in a country. The rate at which a population in a country grows per year. Death Rate Birth rate Annual Growth rate Life Expectancy

2. 2 For the population to increase (go up) more people must be born than die. The Birth Rate must be higher than the Death Rate. Every year the people born then have more children so the birth rate will keep increasing. Good Healthcare (hospitals, Doctors) and better lifestyles (keeping clean and eating good food) have meant that people are living longer. Why is population increasing?

9. LEDC vs MEDC MEDC = More Economically developed country LEDC = Less economically developed country. Write down the difference between MEDC and LEDC. Give 5 examples of each (10 countries in total).

10. Increased retirement homes Large families are needed in poorer countries to work on the land Improved healthcare Food shortagesBirth control available Longer life expectancy Increased immigrationIncreased emigrationNew hospitals Improved water supplyGood harvestsWar Understanding of child cost Tax relief for families Cultural or Religious traditions for larger families Lack of education in family planning and contraception. In the developed world, the cost of a baby is increasing, child care is expensive and large houses are expensive. In LEDC children need to support parents later in life, as there is no state pension. Increase or Decrease? Using two colours shade in the boxes whether the factor may cause population to increase or decrease. In the spare boxes you should try and write your own ideas.

11. Increased retirement homes (where old people are taken care of) Large families are needed in poorer countries to work on the land (The children must to help the parents) In LEDC children need to support parents later in life, as there is no state pension from the government. Food shortage (less food) Birth control availableLonger life expectancy Increased immigration (people coming) Increased emigration (people leaving) No medication Improved water supply Good harvests (good crops/vegetables grow) Improved healthcare Understanding of child cost (how much it will cost them for one child.) Tax relief for families (help from the government) Natural disasters (Floods, earthquakes) Lack of education in family planning and contraception. (they don’t have education) In the developed world, the cost of a baby is increasing, maids are and large houses are expensive. Car accidentsWarNew hospitals

12. MEDC vs LEDC Factor Birth/Death rate Increase or Decrease? MEDC or LEDC – why? Children play an important role working with their family to help them Birth rate = Increase LEDC = Need more money Outside the cities, in villages the tradition is to have many children. The majority of people live in urban areas… Birth control is easily available… Some poor countries have no pensions (for old, retired people) so they depend on their children to look after them. Good healthcare is available.

Children play an important role working with their family to help them Birth rate = Increase LEDC = Need more money Outside the cities, in villages the tradition is to have many children. Birth rate = Increase LEDC = Traditional, not modern. The majority of people live in urban areas… Birth control is easily available… Birth rate = Decrease LEDC = Modern ideas, More education. Some poor countries have no pensions (for old, retired people) so they depend on their children to look after them. Birth rate = Increase LEDC = Government doesn’t give old people money Good healthcare is available. Death rate = decreases MEDC = People are saved
