Summary Introduction
To review:
The influence of age structure of a population on its future population growth.
Introduction:
Age of the population determines the future of growth rate of the population. There are usually three age groups, which are the younger age group (pre-reproductive), the reproductive age group, and the older age group (post reproductive). The percentage of reproductive age group denotes the future growth rate.
