Learning Check Worksheet:

• Given population data for Bolivia and Canada, create a population pyramid for both nations.

• Analyze the pyramid graphs and draw conclusions about population dynamics and classify each nation as Developing, Developed/Slow, or Developed/Negative.

• Analyze the human world population graph and infer how the agricultural, industrial and medical revolutions have impacted human population growth.
