Solution

Birth Rate Death Rate
it is the number of live births per thousand of population during a year for a particular region. It is the number of deaths per thousand of population during a year for a particular region.
It is calculated using the following formula:
CBR = Bi/P x lOOO
Here, CBR = crude birth rate,
Bi = Number of live births in a year,
P = the estimated midyear population of that year.
It is calculated using the following
formula:
CDR= D/P x lOOO
Here, CDR = crude death rate,
D = Number of deaths in a year,
P = the estimated midyear population of that year.
If birth rate is more than death rate, it results in positive growth of population. If death rate is more than birth rate it results in negative growth of population.
