It is the people who add value to a resource.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ii_What_are_the_causes_of_the_uneven_distribution_of_population_in_the_world\"><\/span><strong>(ii) What are the causes of the uneven distribution of <\/strong><strong>population<\/strong><strong> in the world?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Ans:<\/strong> The distribution of population in the world is uneven. Some areas are very crowded while some are sparsely populated. Following are the main causes of the uneven distribution of population in the world:<\/p>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: lower-roman;\" start=\"1\">\n<li><strong>Geographical factors:<\/strong> Some of the reasons affecting population distribution are favourable topography, availability of mineral and freshwater resources, favourable climate and soil fertility. For example, Indo Gangetic Plains, Diamond Mines of South Africa etc are densely populated. Whereas desert regions like Sahara, mountainous regions like Himalayas and cold regions like Antarctica, etc are sparsely populated.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Social and Cultural factors:<\/strong> Areas of better housing, education and health facilities are more populated. eg. Pune. Places of religious and cultural significance also attract people e.g., Varanasi, Jerusalem etc.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Economic factors:<\/strong> Places having more industries, transportation and communication facilities provide better employment opportunities. People are attracted to these places because of the above reasons, For example, Osaka, Mumbai etc.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"iii_The_world_population_has_grown_very_rapidly_Why\"><\/span><strong>(iii) The world population has grown very rapidly. Why?<br \/>\n<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Ans:<\/strong> The world population has grown very rapidly because of the following reasons :<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>With advancements in science and technology, the growth of food supplies has increased. Development in healthcare facilities has helped in reducing the death rate.<\/li>\n<li>Also, there is a decrease in the death rate but the birth rate has remained quite high.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"iv_Discuss_the_role_of_any_two_factors_influencing_population_change\"><\/span><strong>(iv) Discuss the role of any two factors influencing population change.<br \/>\n<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Ans:<\/strong> The two major factors that influence population change are:<br \/>\n<strong>Natural growth: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The difference between the birth rate and the death rate is referred to as the natural growth rate.<\/li>\n<li>The birth rate is the number of live births per 1000 people, while the death rate is the number of deaths per 1000 people.<\/li>\n<li>These are the natural causes of population change. When the birth rate is higher than the death rate, population increases. When the death rate is more than the birth rate, population decreases. When the two rates are equal, the population remains constant.<\/li>\n<li>Thus, the birth and death rates affect the balance of population.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Migration: <\/strong>People may move within the country or between the countries. Thus migration is another factor that influences population change.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"v_What_is_meant_by_population_composition\"><\/span><strong>(v) What is meant by population composition?<br \/>\n<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong>Ans:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The basic structure of the population is called Population composition.<\/li>\n<li>Population composition helps to know the number of males or female, their age-groups, ethnicity, tribe, language, religion, literacy, their occupation, their income level and health conditions etc.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"vi_What_are_population_pyramids_How_do_they_help_in_understanding_the_population_of_a_country\"><\/span><strong>(vi) What are population pyramids?
