Question

Which type of human population is represented by this age pyramid?

• A. Declining population
• B. Expanding population
• C. Stable population
• D. Vanishing population

Answer 1

The correct option is A Declining population

Declining population has more individuals of the reproductive age group than the proportion of individuals of the pre-reproductive age group. The post-reproductive age group also includes fewer individuals.

Since the given pyramid in the question has fewer fraction of individuals in the pre-reproductive age group as compared to the reproductive age group, hence, it represents a declining population.
