The Human Population |Get Solution

**********************************************REVIEW COURSE MATERIAL********************************************                                                                2 PART ASSIGNMENT  Instructions                   ASSIGNMENT 1 Globally, the human population is increasing exponentially. What are some of the reasons for this population explosion? Do you think this is something that should be controlled? And if so, how might reproduction be curbed? What effects of population growth have you seen in the area you live in? Your journal entry must be at least 200 words. No references or citations are necessary. Instructions               ASSIGNMENT 2 In this unit, you learned that the characteristics of a population at a given time can be represented graphically using birth and death rate data, among many other parameters. In Part I of this activity, you will work with a simple data set to create a human survivorship curve and answer questions about the results and the data itself. In Part II, you will work with interactive age structure diagrams in an online simulator to analyze population growth trends for both China and the United States. For an example of an age structure diagram, see the presentations for the Unit II Lesson.
