What shape does a population pyramid
What shape does a population pyramid take for a rapidly growing population?
तीव्र गति से बढ़ती जनसंख्या के लिए जनसंख्या पिरामिड किस आकार का होता है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Triangular shape/ त्रिकोणीय आकार
🟢 Explanation
A population pyramid shows the distribution of a population by age and sex.
For a rapidly growing population:
-
There is a large number of young people (wide base).
-
Fewer elderly people (narrow top).
-
This creates a triangular or pyramid-like shape, indicating high birth rates and often high but declining death rates.
This shape is typical of developing countries experiencing rapid population growth.
🟢 व्याख्या
जनसंख्या पिरामिड उम्र और लिंग के आधार पर जनसंख्या का वितरण दर्शाता है।
तीव्र गति से बढ़ती जनसंख्या के लिए:
-
युवाओं की संख्या बहुत अधिक होती है → आधार चौड़ा।
-
वृद्ध लोगों की संख्या कम → शीर्ष संकरा।
-
इसका आकार त्रिकोणीय (पिरामिड जैसा) होता है, जो उच्च जन्म दर और अक्सर उच्च लेकिन घटती मृत्यु दर को दर्शाता है।
यह आकृति आम तौर पर विकासशील देशों में देखी जाती है।
⭐ Extra Facts / अतिरिक्त तथ्य
🔹 Narrow base → declining population / जनसंख्या में कमी
🔹 Rectangular shape → stable population / स्थिर जनसंख्या
🔹 Inverted triangle → declining birth rate / जन्म दर में गिरावट
