What does it mean when a country has a high birth rate?
A high birth rate in a country means that there are more births per 1,000 people in the population. This can lead to a larger population growth rate and potentially strain on resources like healthcare, education, and jobs if not managed effectively.
What are some reasons for high birth rates in developing countries?
Poor education, Women have no careers, no contraception, farmers need many children to work land, high infant mortality rates so more babies born. Many Developing countries are Hindu or Arab so large families encouraged. In Tribal African communities large families give status.
What is the divorce rate in Ecuador?
.42 per 1000 people, so 4.2%
What is it called if the birthrate and death rate are equal?
Population stabilization: Common term for zero population growth, in which the birth rate equals the death rate and in addition where net immigration equals net emigration so that the population does not increase or decrease over time. Usually used in the context of stabilizing increasing populations.http://www.susps.org/overview/population_terms.html
Why is Bangladesh a densely populated country?
Bangladesh has decreased the total fertility rate significantly since independence in 1971. For the past five or 6 years the birth rate has been fairly stable, though estimates for 2009 predict a decrease. The population growth rate estimate for 2009 is 1.29% according to the CIA World Factbook. This places Bangladesh just behind Brazil and Australia, both at 1.2%, in terms of total population growth. Of course, the lower life expectancy in Bangladesh means that the crude birth rate is higher than these countries.Many factors contribute to the high birth rate in Bangladesh. These include:Low literacy rates, particularly among women and in rural areasPervasive extreme poverty: birth control, while inexpensive, may still be unaffordableReligious environment: birth control is often incompatible with Muslim beliefsWomen's place in society - while a woman may desire to use birth control, she may be forbidden to so so by her husband.A strong cultural preference for boys may lead some women to have more children than they would like. Women who only have girls may be shunned by their families, divorced, or abandoned. The husband may take a second wife hoping to have a son.Ignorance of birth control methodsIgnorance of basic biology and the "facts of life."Difficulty accessing birth control for some parts of the rural populationBangladesh has come a long way in terms of controlling population. Various modern birth control methods are readily available in shops and are often provided without cost by NGOs at area clinics. Unfortunately, some organizations have pursued population control at the expense of women's rights. It is not uncommon for a woman to be prescribed a "menstrual regulation" procedure at a local clinic when her period is late. This is really a D & C performed as an early abortion, and is often done without the full knowledge / informed consent of the woman.
Why is the birth rate in Kenya higher than Italy?
in many LEDCs (less economically developed countries) this is the case. this is due to high infant mortality (death a birth) caused by poor health care. so many families have a number of babies as there is a high chance they will die
Why is China's birth rate so high?
because
Why is the birth rate Saudi Arabia so high and what does it mean?

How did LEDCs get into debt with MEDCs?
ledcs ask medcs for money if they need it but over time, medcs charge more and more interest and so the ledcs can't pay it back. medcs also bargain for their resources so when the ledcs are left in debt, with no control over their resources, they end up in poverty.
What are three factors that have caused the worlds population to grow so rapidly?
the birth rate is so high the weather and medical science!
Is it possible for a population with a high birth rate to decrease in size explain?
I guess it is if you are in war or your country is tortured by a disease. Then many people will be killed in war/get infected and die. After that even if the birth rate is high, the death rate would be higher so the population will decrease in size. It is possible. (Sorry for not professional answer.)

What is immortality rate?
It is basically the birth rate so immortality rate=birth rate While mortality rate =Death rate (just think only mortals can die)

Why are people in MEDC's having less children than people in LEDC's?
Birth rate refers to how many children are born per 1000 people, so higher birth rates result from anything influencing this 'choice'. reasons why LEDCs have a higher birth rate are both due to a falling birth rate in many MEDCs as well as increasing birth rates in LEDCs. One: sex and age - If women are within child-bearing age (18-25 I suppose is accurate) they are more likely to have children and less likely to lose the child. This can explain differences between LEDCs and MEDCs as in LEDCs there is a greater proportion of younger women than in MEDCs in their population, which will in turn increase births per 1000 people. Two: Economic reasons. In MEDCs less people are having children, as they give an 'opportunity cost' (i.e. if a family have a child they may not be able to move into a larger house, for example, due to needing the money for raising the child). In LEDCs children can instead be seen as an economic asset, particularly in rural agrarian cultures where more children means an extra pair of hands to work the land. Both are significant; the first in deterring births in MEDCs and the second incentivising them in LEDCs. Three: Social reasons. Firstly, there is evidence to support that with gender equality fertility rates fall, thus birth rates also fall. It is the same with education of women. Both give women a choice on whether or not to have children, making it less of a part of life, which will inevitably lead to some deciding against having children. This is less the case in LEDCs, explaining why more women have children here than in MEDCs. Secondly, it can also be seen favourably for men to have a lot of children, pushing both men and women to have more children to achieve a higher social status (the case in many parts of Africa). Thirdly, if expectations are that half of your children will die before adulthood, you are likely to have more to ensure the family can continue - with higher infant mortality in LEDCs a lot of women choose to have more children to ensure that at least one survives (which is not the case in MEDCs). Finally, contraception plays a vital role both in availibility and willingness - certain cultures will frown upon contraception for religious reasons (many of these in LEDCs), and LEDCs are less likely to invest in family planning, so people are less aware of measures they can take to have less children.
Why is the literacy rate so high in Poland?
Literacy rate in Poland is so high because there is a compulsory schooling for all children.
China's birth rate?
well, its birth rate is so fast that if you were to have them line up to shake all their hands, the line would be never ending.
