Contrast the expected age structure of the population of a developing country with that of a Developed country. [7]
The three main age structure of a country are namely children of school leaving age, working population and retired people. The proportion of children in developing countries will be more compared with a developed country. Because in developing countries, may not have better awareness in population education and family planning. Hence the birthrate of these countries may be high. Secondly, the proportion of old people will be more in developed countries compared with developing countries because in developed countries, there is an existence of better health facilities compared with a developing country. Eventually people in the working age also will e relatively high in developed countries because of low birth and death rate and also due to migration of workforce from developing countries.
this makes a lot of sense
