Global Population Trends and Analysis

The video tutorial explores human population growth, focusing on age-gender distribution graphs. It explains how these graphs illustrate population structures and growth patterns, such as expanding, contracting, and stationary. The tutorial uses South Africa as a case study to demonstrate historical and future population trends, comparing them with global patterns. The video emphasizes the importance of understanding these distributions for analyzing population dynamics.

What is the primary focus of the video tutorial's introduction?

• The impact of technology on human populations

• The concept of age-gender distribution

• The history of human civilization

• The role of governments in population control

What is an age-gender distribution graph also known as?
