Demographic cycle
◆ Demographiccycle is the scientific study of human
population.
◆ It is defined as the science which deals with the study of all
aspect of population progress,welfare,death in a family and
also about birth in a family age and number of childrens
and their qualification deformities in the family and
sanitation etc…
4.
◆ It focuseson the below following:
Changes in population size
Composition of population
Distribution of population in space
5.
Demographic cycle
◆ Highstationary stage
◆ Early expanding stage
◆ Late expanding stage
◆ Low stationary satge
◆ Declining stage
6.
High stationary stage
Itis the first stage during which population remains
stationary because there is a high birth rate as well as
death rate.
◆ It is the second stage during which the death rate begins
to fall but the birth rate remains unchanged.
7.
Late expanding stage
◆It is the stage where the birth rate decreases but still
the population continues to increase due because the
birth rate is still higher than death rate
Low stationary stage
◆ It is the fourth stage during which population remains
almost stationary because there is low birth rate as well
as death rate
8.
Declining stage
◆ Itis the fifth stage during which the population begins
to decrease because the birth rate is lower than the
death rate
9.
Population pyramid
◆ Populationpyramid:
A population pyramid is a graphical illustration that shows the
distribution of various age groups in a population
This is also known as age sex pyramid
◆ Three general kinds of population pyramids:
1.stationary
2.expansive
3.constrictive
10.
◆ Expansive pyramid:
Thistype of pyramid indicate a population in which there is:
High birth rate
High death rate
Short life expectancy
◆ Stationary pyramid:
A population pyramid showing an unchanging pattern of fertility
and mortality
It indicate slow population growth or stable population.
the stationary pyramid displays somewhat equal share of
juvenile and adult age growth
11.
◆ Constrictive pyramid:
Apopulation pyramid showing lower or percentage of
younger people
The country will have a graying population which means
that people are generally older
It represents low fertility low mortality high life expectancy
and ageing of population
It is typically associated with very advanced country which
have a high level of literacy and very good health and medical facility
12.
◆ Sex ratio:
Itis defined as the number of girls for every thousand boys
The sex ratio is a measure that compares the number of
women and men in a particular population group
◆ Demographic indicators:
demographic characteristic of a country provide an overview
of its population size, composition, territorial distribution, changes
therein and the component of changes such as natality mortality and
social mobility
13.
◆ Classification ofdemographic indicators:
population statistics
vital statistics
◆ Vital statistics:
Birth rate
Death rate
Natural growth rate
Life expectancy at birth
Mortality rate
Fertility rate
14.
◆ Birth rate:
Thebirth rate is defined as the ratio between the number of live
born births in the year and the average total population of that year
◆ Death rate:
The death rate is defined as the between deaths and individual
in a specified population and time period
◆ Growth rate:
The difference between the birth and death rate is termed as the
growth rate of population
◆ Life expectancy at birth:
The number of years a newborn infant would live if prevailing
pattern of mortality at the time of its birth were to stay the same throughout
its life
15.
◆ Mortality rate:
Thenumber of deaths in a given area from a particular cause.
◆ Fertility rate:
The average number of children born tp each women in a given
region during the course of her lifetime
