Across
  1. 2. The total number of deaths in a year for every 1,000 people alive in the society.
  2. 4. The number of years needed to double a population, assuming a constant natural increase rate.
  3. 10. Males and females between the ages of 0-14.
  4. 13. very low CBR, increasing CDR, negative NIR
  5. 14. An especially virulent (severe/harmful) epidemic.
  6. 16. A model that illustrates the process of change in a society's population from high crude birth and death rates and low rate of natural increase to a condition of low crude birth and death rates, low rate of natural increase, and higher total population.
  7. 17. An increase in delayed degenerative diseases occurs.
  8. 19. Continued decrease in deaths from infectious diseases. An increase in chronic disorders and degenerative diseases associated with aging start to occur.
  9. 21. The percentage by which a population grows in a year.
  10. 22. The total number of live births in a year for every 1,000 people alive in the society.
  11. 25. The number of people under age 15 and over age 64 compared to the number of people active in the labor force.
  12. 28. The ratio of the number of farmers to the amount of arable land.
  13. 30. The portion of Earth's surface occupied by permanent human settlement
  14. 33. Medical technology invented in Europe and North America that has diffused (spread) to the developing countries in Latin America, Asia, and Africa. Improved medical practices have eliminated many of the traditional causes of death in developing countries and enabled more people to live longer and healthier lives.
  15. 34. The average number of children a woman will have throughout her childbearing years.
  16. 35. rapidly declining CBR, moderately declining CDR, moderate NIR
  17. 37. still high CBR, rapidly declining CDR, very high NIR
  18. 38. Government policy that supports higher birth rates.
  19. 39. Males and females from the age of 45 and up.
  20. 40. A situation in which the number of people in an area exceeds the capacity of the environment to support them at a decent standard of living.
Down
  1. 1. Males and females between the ages of 15-44.
  2. 3. The number of working-age people (ages 15 to 64) divided by the number of persons 65 and older.
  3. 5. A theory that states that the population will grow too fast and the food supply will not be able to catch up.
  4. 6. The total number of people divided by the total land area.
  5. 7. A decline of the total fertility rate to the point where the natural increase rate equals zero.
  6. 8. of ETM Reemergence of infectious and parasitic diseases. Infectious diseases thought to have been eradicated or controlled have returned, and new ones have emerged.
  7. 9. The process of change in the distinctive causes of death in each stage of the demographic transition.
  8. 11. The total number of deaths in a year among infants under 1 year of age for every 1,000 live births in a society.
  9. 12. A widespread occurrence of an infectious disease in a community at a particular time.
  10. 15. A bar graph that displays the percentage of a place's population for each age and gender.
  11. 18. very low CBR, low/slightly increasing CDR, zero or negative NIR
  12. 20. A disease that occurs over a wide geographic area and affects a very high proportion of the population.
  13. 23. A series of improvements in industrial technology that transformed the process of manufacturing goods.
  14. 24. that is suitable for growing crops.
  15. 26. Government policy that supports lower birth rates.
  16. 27. The number of people supported by a unit of arable land.
  17. 29. very high CBR, very high CDR, very low NIR
  18. 31. Epidemics and pandemics are the main causes of human deaths, along with famine, accidents, and attacks by animals/other humans.
  19. 32. Pandemics start to recede due to improved sanitation, nutrition, and medicine. Diseases spread less.
  20. 36. A widespread occurrence of an infectious disease that is considered seasonal and/or predictable.
