Clues

  • A policy aiming to reduce a countries population (4, 8, 6)
  • A prediction of the population in the future based on trends in fertility, mortality and migration (10, 10)
  • The number of births per thousand per year (5, 5, 4)
  • The number of deaths of children aged 1-5 per thousand (5, 9, 4)
  • The number of deaths per thousand live births (6, 9, 4)
  • The number of people under the age of 15 and over the age of 60 (the dependents), compared to the number of people aged 16-59 (the economically active). (10, 5)
  • The rate at which a population replaces itself. He fertility rate must be 2 children per women because any less will cause a population to begin to decrease. (11, 4)
  • The tendency for a population to continue to increase, even if the fertility rate decreases, due to a prior increase in the population, increasing the youthful population and therefore the number of people who will grow up and have more children. (10, 8)
  • When a child dies before the age of 1 (6, 9)
  • When the birth rate exceeds the death rate, causing the population to increase (7, 8)
