How did China's population grow so quickly?
China's population growth can be contributed to many things. A couple of reasons would be that the population grew due to immigration and the decrease in infant mortality.
Why is age not normal distribution in statistics?
In a stable population, the number of people of any age must be smaller than the number of people in the age just below. This is because the difference between the two is the number of younger people who died at that age. Furthermore mortality rates are age dependent: after a relatively (or in some cases absolutely) high infant mortality, the rate drops until old age kicks in. As a reult the distribution is not normal. In a growing population the lower end of the distribution is large and so again not normal.

What is demographic problem?
A demographic problem refers to challenges related to population characteristics such as age distribution, fertility rates, mortality rates, and migration patterns. These issues can impact areas like healthcare, labor force participation, economic growth, and social services. Common demographic problems include aging populations, declining birth rates, and uneven population distribution.
Reasons for rapid increase in population?
Immigration, decrease in infant mortality, increase in birth rate, decrease in mortality.
What affects population growth?
Population growth is influenced by factors such as fertility rates, mortality rates, immigration, and emigration. High fertility rates and low mortality rates tend to lead to population growth, while high emigration rates can reduce it. Socioeconomic factors, government policies, access to healthcare, and cultural practices also play a role in shaping population growth.
