Answer Only 3 Questions
Type answers for Question I, II, and IV in double space font 12
QUESTION I:
The control of disease and mortality has vastly improved the
human condition and has in fact revolutionized life. DISCUSS
(one-page double space)
QUESTION II:
Fertility has both a biological and a social component.
EXPLAIN (one-page double space).
QUESTION III:
Write between the given brackets the correct number of the
word or phrase in the passage:
( ) Longevity ( ) Infants ( ) Genetic ( ) High fertility (
) Income ( ) Longevity
( ) High mortality ( ) Mathematical ( ) Policy issue ( )
Education ( ) Dehydration ( ) Randomly
Disease and death are not (1) distributed across the life cycle.
The very young and the old are most vulnerable. The (2) or
biological aspects (3) have led many theorists to believe that the
age patterns of (4) could be explained by a simple (5) formula.
We may know what kills us, but we are less certain about what
it is that allows us to survive. High level (6) and (7) however,
can possibly avoid (8) and other cause of death among (9)
Facing (10) in human history, only societies with sufficiently
(11) managed to survive over the years. In the present time,
fertility is not always preferred as a (12). Only societies with
sufficient resources are theoretically able to maintain high
levels of fertility.
QUESTION IV:
Separate population pyramids of American population indicate
White, Black, Asian, American Indian, and Hispanic people are
significantly younger and thus more likely to be a larger
proportion of the population into the future. Just as examples,
the median age of the White, non-Hispanic population is forty-
one years of age; for African Americans, it is thirty-one years
of age; for Native Americans thirty years, and for Hispanics,
twenty-seven years. For Asians, median age is thirty-five (U.S.
Census Bureau, 2012). This ‘minority-majority’ population
refers not just to numbers in a population, but also to the
unequal treatment of diverse groups. Thus, by the year 20150, it
is expected that whites will be 74 percent of the population
(compared to 81 percent in 2000) – still a numerical majority,
but less sp than in the recent past. African Americans are
expected to remain somewhat steady at 13 percent of the total
U.S. population. Hispanics and Asians will grow the most, from
12 to 30 percent from 2000 to 2050. Asian Americans are
predicted to grow from 4 percent to almost 8 percent. Those
labeled as ‘other’ in the U.S. census, including American
Indians, Alaskans, Aleuts, and those identifying as mixed race
will also double their current representation from 8 to 14
percent (U.S. Census Bureau 2012).
Comment on the demographics mentioned about American
population in the present and expected future. What is the
impact of these demographics on the social, economic, and
cultural diversity of the country (one page double space) and 2)
What are the possibilities and implications of the census
projections to problems of equality, economic progression, and
political power structure (one page double space)?
