Crude death rate (CDR)
A.
The total number of deaths per 1,000 living people
B.
The total number of live births per 1,000 living people
C.
The process of change in a society's population from high birth and death rates and a low NIR to low birth and death rates, a low NIR, and higher total population
D.
The percentage of growth in a population in a year. The crude birth rate minus the crude death rate.
E.
The number of years needed to double a population, assuming a constant NIR
F.
Degenerative diseases (moderately declining CDR): features more deaths caused by aging (cardiovascular disease and cancer)
G.
The population of Earth's surface occupied by permanent human setlement
H.
The number of people per unit of arable land
I.
Receding pandemics (rapidly declining CDR): improved sanitation, nutrition, and medicine during the Industrial Revolution
J.
Low growth: hunting and gathering, high CBRs and CDRs, population increased when food was easily obtained, no full nation is in this stage
K.
Low growth: the CBR declines to the point where it equals the CDR and the NIR approaches zero, features a TFR of about 2.1
L.
A possible fifth stage that could be developing in which the CDR rises because most of the population is elderly and because of the re-emergence of diseases. Could be caused by evolution, poverty, and/or increased connections
M.
Pestilence and famine (high CDR): infections, parasitic diseases, and animal attacks were the main causes of death (ex: the Black Plague)
N.
A situation in which the number of people in an area exceeds the capacity of the environment to support life at a decent standard of living
O.
The number of males per 100 females
P.
The branch of medical science concerned with diseases that are prevalent among a population at a special time and are produced by some special causes not generally present in the affected area
Q.
Distinctive causes of death in each stage of the demographic transition
R.
High growth: caused by the Industrial Revolution or the medical revolution
S.
The total number of people divided by the total land area
T.
The average number of children a woman will have throughout her childbearing years

21.
The scientific study of population characteristics
incorrect
22.
A bar graph that represents the distribution of population by age and sex
incorrect
23.
Disease that occurs over a wide geographic area and affects a very high proportion of the population
incorrect
24.
Medical technology invented in Europe and North America that has diffused to poorer counties in Latin America, Asia, and Africa. Improved medical practices have eliminated many traditional causes of death and allow people to live longer + healthier lives.
incorrect
25.
The total number of deaths in a year among infants under one year of age for every 1,000 live births in a society
incorrect
26.
The ratio of the number of farmers to the total amount of land suitable for agriculture
incorrect
27.
A series of improvements in industrial technology that transformed the process of manufacturing goods
incorrect
28.
The average number of years a person can be expected to love, given current social, economic, and medical conditions. (Life expectancy at birth is the average number of years a newborn can be expected to live.)
incorrect
29.
A complete enumeration of a population + the most important data tool for geographers. Controversial bc of nonparticipation (homeless + undocumented immigrants are less likely to take it) + sampling (you can't use census to redraw political boundaries)
