The dependency ratio is generally lower in more developed countries compared to less developed ones. This is because developed countries tend to have lower birth rates and longer life expectancies, resulting in a larger working-age population relative to dependents (children and the elderly). However, as populations age in developed nations, the ratio can increase due to a growing proportion of elderly dependents. Overall, while the dependency ratio can vary, it is often more favorable in developed countries due to demographic trends.
it is because developed countries are more advanced in learning and technology compared to peasant economy countries
A legal means that some citizens of Caribbean countries can use to migrate to a developed country would be due to fleeing due to persecution.
People in developed countries use about 3 times more water than people in developing countries. This discrepancy is mainly due to higher standards of living, industrial activities, and infrastructure that require more water consumption.
The rate of natural increase is typically greater in less developed countries due to higher birth rates and lower mortality rates. These nations often have limited access to family planning, education, and healthcare, leading to larger families. In contrast, more developed countries tend to have lower birth rates because of greater access to education, economic opportunities, and healthcare, which encourage smaller family sizes and delayed childbirth. Consequently, the demographic transition in developed countries results in slower population growth compared to their less developed counterparts.
Diverticulosis is more common in developed countries primarily due to dietary factors, particularly a low-fiber diet that is prevalent in these regions. A diet lacking in fiber can lead to increased pressure in the colon, contributing to the formation of diverticula. Additionally, lifestyle factors such as sedentary behavior and obesity, which are more common in developed nations, may also play a role in the higher incidence of this condition. Overall, these factors combine to create a higher risk environment for diverticulosis in developed countries.
outsourcing replaces workers in developed nations with workers in developing nations
Population growth in more developed countries tends to be slower, often stabilizing or even declining due to lower birth rates, higher life expectancy, and access to family planning. In contrast, less developed countries typically experience higher population growth rates driven by higher birth rates, improved healthcare leading to lower mortality rates, and limited access to education and family planning resources. This disparity can lead to significant demographic and economic challenges, as less developed countries may struggle with resource allocation and infrastructure to support their growing populations.
People in developed countries have a higher standard of living then people in developing countries.
