1) BIRTH RATE-the number of live births per 1000 in a year
Birth rates are affected by such factors as nutrition, fertility, attitudes about abortion, labour value of children, government policies, social value, the availability of contraception and culture.
2) DEATH RATE-the number of deaths per 1000 in a year
Death rates are affected by disease, war, medical technology, improved health care, transportation development and nutrition.
3) IMMIGRATION-the number of people moving into a country.
Pull factors-characteristics of a place that attracts people to it.
4) EMIGRATION-the number of people leaving a country
Push Factors-characteristics of a place that causes people to leave.
Refugees- people who are forced to leave their country due to war, life-threatening discrimination, famine, or natural disasters.
Population Growth Rate - The percentage increase in a population over a period of time. Calculated by subtracting the number of deaths + emigrants from the number of births + immigrants.
Replacement Level - The number of children required to keep the population of a country constant, not taking migration into consideration. This is about 2.1 children per female in MDCs and 2.5 children per female in LDCs.
Total Fertility Rate - The average number of children a woman has in her lifetime in a country. This obviously depends on religion, culture, social values and economic status.
it the growth of the population
Factors that affect the population of China include government policies such as the one-child policy, urbanization and economic growth leading to shifting demographics and lifestyle changes, healthcare improvements increasing life expectancy, and changing social norms around family planning and marriage.
Population growth is limited by the ability of the natural environment to sustain it. It can be limited by food shortages or a lack of shelter. Disease outbreaks can also limit population growth.
Population size can affect resource availability, infrastructure demands, environmental sustainability, and social dynamics in a region. It can also impact economic growth, competition for jobs, and strain on social services. Balancing population growth with resources and infrastructure development is essential for sustainable development.
It is difficult to predict with certainty, but based on current trends and population growth rates, it is estimated that the global population may be around 10 to 12 billion people in 100 years. Various factors such as advancements in technology, healthcare, and social changes can also affect population growth.

Population growth is constrained by factors such as limited resources (food, water, land), disease, natural disasters, war, and access to healthcare. Additionally, social and cultural factors, government policies, and family planning practices can also influence population growth rates.

It is difficult to predict which countries will succeed in increasing their population growth rates. Factors such as government policies, economic conditions, and social norms will play a role in determining the outcome.
