What type of population growth is represented by the above age pyramid?
Draw an age pyramid for the ‘zero population growth rate’.
Given below is the Age Pyramid of the population in one of the states in India as per 2011 census. It depicts the male population on the left-hand side, female population on the right-hand side, newborns towards the base and gradually increasing age groups as we move from base to the top, with the oldest population at the top. Study this pyramid and comment upon the appropriateness of the Assertion and the Reason.
Percentage to the total population
Assertion: It is a stable population.
Reason: The pre-reproductive and reproductive individuals are almost in equal numbers and the post-reproductive individuals are relatively fewer.

- Birth rate and death rate
- Male and female
- Birth and death
- Sex-ratio
