2 Make sure you understand the meaning of…. culture population density birthrate immigrant emigrant urbanization rural culture hearth cultural convergence diffusion cultural divergence demographics

3 The beliefs and actions that define a people’s way of life.

10 How are ideas and trends transmitted amongst people?

12 The process by which a cultural element is transmitted across some distance from one group or individual to another. Diffusion often occurs through the migration of people who take their cultural traits with them to new locations.

13 The restriction of a culture from outside cultural influences. Examples include: Berlin Wall North Korean border

14 “The study of populations…” …the most recent statistical characteristics of a population. These types of data are used widely in sociology, public policy, and marketing.

15 These include gender, race, age, disabilities, mobility, home ownership, employment status, and even location. Demographic trends describe the historical changes in demographics in a population over time (for example, the average age of a population may increase or decrease over time).

16 Both distributions and trends of values within a demographic variable are of interest. Demographics are about the population of a region and the culture of the people there.
