Question 1 Report

A broad-based population pyramid is composed mainly of?
Answer Details
A broad-based population pyramid is composed mainly of young dependants. A population pyramid is a graphical representation of a population's age and sex distribution. A broad-based pyramid has a wide base, indicating a high proportion of children and young people relative to older individuals. This means that there are more young dependants in the population, and they are not yet part of the active working population. As a result, this type of pyramid typically indicates a high fertility rate and a youthful population.
