Question
Diagram that shows the age and male/female distribution of a population, where the youngest are at the base and the oldest at the top
- Dependent population
- Population pyramid
- Food pyramid
- Population density distribution
Hint:
The population pyramid consists of two histograms, one for each gender (by convention, men on the left and women on the right) where the numbers are shown horizontally and the ages vertically.
The correct answer is: Population pyramid
- Population pyramid (age structure diagram) or "age-sex pyramid" is a graphical illustration of the distribution of a population (typically that of a country or region of the world) by age groups and sex; it typically takes the shape of a pyramid when the population is growing.
- The population pyramid represents the breakdown of the population by gender and age at a given point in time
