Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 7.22 Population Pyramids and Demographic Indicators skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery
A planner combines three sources for one society: a population pyramid with a moderately narrow base and many adults ages 20–39, an indicator table showing fertility 2.2, life expectancy 78, and infant mortality 7, and a note that "the large young-adult cohort was born before fertility began to fall." Which summary is most accurate?
AThe society's growth is slowing, but population momentum may keep total numbers rising for a while
BThe society must begin shrinking immediately because fertility is below 3
CThe society is becoming younger because the base is narrow
DThe evidence proves that migration is the only factor shaping the pyramid
Solution & Explanation:The moderate fertility and narrow base show slower growth than before, but the large young-adult cohort can still support continued growth through population momentum.
Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery
A textbook describes a shift from fast population growth to slower growth as fertility declines and health improves. Which society best matches that shift right now? Korin: fertility 4.9, life expectancy 60, infant mortality 35 Lessa: fertility 2.6, life expectancy 73, infant mortality 12 Moro: fertility 1.4, life expectancy 84, infant mortality 3 Nalin: fertility 4.1, life expectancy 64, infant mortality 26

Solution & Explanation:Lessa has lower fertility than the fast-growth societies but is not as old as Moro. Its improving health indicators suggest it is in the middle of that transition.
Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery
Which society is most likely to need both job creation and expanded secondary schools soon? Avela: fertility 4.3, life expectancy 66, infant mortality 22 Bren: fertility 1.6, life expectancy 84, infant mortality 3 Coral: fertility 2.4, life expectancy 76, infant mortality 9 Dast: fertility 1.9, life expectancy 80, infant mortality 6
