Practice Reading: Reading and Writing Fill in the Blanks ID: #6316 Population Change
Instructions
Populations  can  change  through  three  processes:  fertility,  mortality  and  migration.  Fertility    the  number  of  children  that  women  have  and  differs  from  fecundity  (a  womans  childbearing  potential).  Mortality  involves  the  causes,  consequences  and  measurement  of  processes  affecting  death  in  a  population.  Demographers  most  commonly  study  mortality  using  the  Life  Table,  a  statistical    which  provides  information  about  the  mortality  conditions  (most  notably  the  life  expectancy)  in  the  population.  Migration  refers  to  the  movement  of  persons  from  an  origin  place  to  a  destination  place  across  some  pre-defined  political  boundary.  Migration  researchers  do  not  designate  movements  as  ''  unless  they  are  somewhat  permanent.  Thus  demographers  do  not  consider  tourists  and  travelers  to  be  migrating.  While  demographers  who  study  migration  typically  do  so  through  census  data  on  place  of  ,  indirect  sources  of  data  including  tax  forms  and  labor  force  surveys  are  also  important.
Demography  is  today  widely  taught  in  many  universities  across  the  world,    students  with  initial  training  in  social  sciences,  statistics  or  health  studies.
