Why is birth and death rate important?

They help keep our population as balanced as possible. If there wasn't a birth rate we couldn't survive as a species, if there wasn't a death rate we also couldn't survive because we would run out of resources. We use these rates to find populations and also to estimate how resources will hold out in different situations.

How does the 2011 birth rate contribute to the Philippines population growth rate?

Given that the population of the Philippines is already estimated at 100 000 000 this year 2011, and the birth rate is at 25 per 1000 and death rate is at 5 per 1000 of the population. That would mean 250 000 births and 50 000 deaths per year. It is a wide gap. This means that there's an extreme growth in the population every year, and with this there should be considerations for the amount of natural resources and other basic needs to be met for the 200 000 human beings being added every year. That gives you a picture of how the birth rate then contributes to the Philippine population growth.

What trends are observable in the birth rates of developing countries and why?

In developing countries, birth rates have generally been declining due to improvements in education, healthcare, and access to family planning resources. Increased female education often correlates with lower fertility rates, as women prioritize careers and personal development. Additionally, urbanization and economic development lead to shifts in family structure and a preference for smaller families. However, disparities exist, and some regions still experience high birth rates due to cultural factors, limited access to contraceptives, and ongoing poverty.

Why does birth rate drop?

- Emancipation of women

- More available contraception

- Comfortable lifestyle: women may be happy with their social lives and career and are less likely to want to give it up.

- Lower infant mortality rate: if there's more chance of infants surviving, people will have less children. This is due to vaccinations, healthcare and sanitation.

- Increased desire for material possessions: Having children is costly, it will affect levels of disposable income.

But the main reason why birth rate is lower is because of the old ONE-CHILD-POLICY that happened in China. There's less women and most women get jobs; not babies

Why does china want to reduce the birth rate?

  1. In 1950 the rate of population change in China was 1.9% each year. If this doesn't sound high, consider that a growth rate of only 3% will cause the population of a country to double in less than 24 years!
  2. Previous Chinese governments had encouraged people to have a lot of children to increase the country's workforce. But by the 1970s the government realised that current rates of population growth would soon become unsustainable.
  3. The one-child policy
  4. The one-child policy, established in 1979, meant that each couple was allowed just one child.
  5. Benefits, including access to education, childcare and health care, were offered to families that followed this rule.
  6. Those who had more than one child didn't receive these benefits and were fined.
  7. The one-child policy was keenly resisted in rural areas, where it was traditional to have large families The one-child policy has been enforced strictly in urban areas, but remote rural areas have been harder to control.
  8. Many people claim that some women, who became pregnant after they had already had a child, were forced to have an abortion and many women were forcibly sterilised. There appears to be evidence to back up these claims

Which European country has the lowest birth rate?

A common trick question. The answer, of course, is Vatican City.

It actually is unknown if Vatican City has the lowest birth rate because no statistics are shown for the country, although it seems like the most likely answer. Based on statistics, as of 2011, Monaco has the lowest birth rate of Europe (and the world) at about 7 newborns per 1000 residents.

Does population growth equal birth rate minus the death rate?

Yes and no.

"Natural increase" is births minus deaths.

"Population growth" includes immigration and emigration too!

So populations can have a negative natural increase (more deaths than births) but still have population growth because immigrants enter the country and settle there permanently (migration). Case in point - the USA.

What was the birth rate in Victorian London?

Infant mortality rates in Britain before 1900 were about 50% - that is half of live births resulted in a death within a year or so. This figure did not materially improve until after the first World War i.e. after the 1920s. Curiously, the plagues which killed more than a third of adults had little effect on child mortality.
