natural rate of increase:

doubling time:

period of years that it takes a country to double its population at its current birth rate.

A developed country is a rich country. People have good jobs, education, and money to buy cars, refrigerators, etc. They have good doctors and hospitals. Canada and the U.S. are developed countries.

A developing country collects raw materials such as copper, timber (wood), and cattle. Economy means money.

Your definition of crude birth rates is correct.

Your other definitions are all correct.

thank you very much ms. sue that make perfect sense now :)

You're very welcome, Mohammad.

To understand these definitions more simply, let me break them down for you:

1. Developed country: This is a country that has a strong economy, often based on services and industries. In these countries, people have a high standard of living with good education, healthcare, and food supplies.

2. Developing country: This type of country relies more on primary industries, such as agriculture or mining. People in developing countries usually have a lower standard of living compared to those in developed countries. When we talk about the economy, we refer to the overall system of production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services in a country. Money is a part of the economy, but it also involves factors like resources, labor, and trade.

3. Census: It is a collection of statistical data about people and various activities. It helps governments and organizations understand the demographics, characteristics, and needs of a population.

4. Crude birth rates: This figure is calculated by dividing the number of births in a year by the population and then multiplying this result by 1000. It gives us a measure of the number of births per 1000 people in a population.

5. Crude death rates: Similar to crude birth rates, this figure is calculated by dividing the number of deaths in a year by the population and then multiplying this result by 1000. It gives us a measure of the number of deaths per 1000 people in a population.

6. Natural rate of increase: It is the difference between the number of births and the number of deaths in a population. This figure is often given per thousand people and provides an indication of the population's growth or decline.

7. Doubling time: This refers to the period of years it takes for a country to double its population at its current birth rate. It helps us understand the population growth rate and its potential impact on various aspects like resources, infrastructure, and services.

I hope these simpler explanations help you understand these concepts better.
