Unit 2 – Population and Migration – Jeopardy Review
ANSWERS
Demographic Transition Model
$100 – CBR = Crude Birth Rate; CDR = Crude Death Rate
$200 – A CDR of 25 means that for every 1000 people in the population of the country,
25 of them die each year. In other words, the death rate is 2.5%.
$300 – In stage 3, a country’s NIR is positive (in other words the population is growing),
but the population growth is happening at a slowing rate. (The students must
mention both parts of this answer to receive credit.)
$400 – To move to stage 4, a country’s birth rate (CBR) must drop to the point that it is
equal to the country’s death rate (CDR). In other words, for a country to be at
stage 4, it must reach the point where its native-born population has zeropopulation growth (ZPG).
$500 – 1) Stages 1 and 4 are similar in that the total population is staying relatively
constant in both of them. (In other words, in both stages the crude birth rates and
crude death rates are relatively equal and there is approximately zero population
growth). 2) Stage 1 is different from Stage 4 in that Stage 1 has very HIGH birth
and death rates while Stage 4 has very LOW birth and death rates.
Migration I
$100 – urbanization
$200 – step migration
$300 – intervening opportunity
$400 – periodic movement
$500 – Ravenstein
Migration II
$100 – suburbanization and counterurbanization
$200 – 1) push factors repel people from their current location, pull factors attract people
to the new place
2) Examples of push factors include – lack of economic opportunities, political or
religious persecution, lack of safety (from weather, crime, or government
violence), social unrest/conflict, etc. Examples of pull factors would be the
opposite: economic opportunities, political or religious freedom, safety, more
peaceful society, opportunity to live with people similar to yourself, etc.
$300 – 1) forced migration
2) Any 2 of the following: the African slave trade, the modern-day slave trade
(including sex trafficking and child trafficking), Indian Removal from the
Southeast / The Trail of Tears, Palestinian removal from Israel (though this is
disputed, accept it if students mention it), Jewish removal from Spain in the late
Middle Ages, pogroms in Russia, Nazi forced relocation/genocide of Jews and
other groups during the Holocaust, or other valid historical examples (Note: do
NOT accept the Irish potato famine as an example of forced migration – the Irish
often moved out of necessity, but there wasn’t really a group of people forcing
them to do so)
$400 – Any 2 of the following: internal, interregional, intranational
$500 – Any 3 of the following:
a) Most migrants go only a short distance.
b) Big cities attract long distance migrants.
c) Most migration is step-by-step.
d) Most migration is rural to urban
e) Each migration flow produces a counterflow.
f) Most migrants are adults-families are less likely to make international moves.
g) Most international migrants are young males.
Population Characteristics
$100 – doubling time
$200 – the J-curve
$300 – underpopulation
$400 – The Epidemiological Transition Model
$500 – 1) Total fertility rate = the number of children the average woman of childbearing
years can expect to have in her lifetime
2) Possible reasons for a drop in the fertility rate include: increased economic
opportunities for women, increased education for women, increased access to
birth control/education about birth control, more people are living in wealthier
countries (countries in later stages of the Demographic Transition Model), more
people are living in cities (where children are less of an economic asset than on a
farm), lower child mortality rates (so parents don’t have to have as many children
to make sure that some survive), government programs that encourage people to
have fewer children (students might mention China’s one-child policy), etc.
Various
$100 – personal space
$200 – chain migration
$300 – a population pyramid
$400 – crude birth rate (CBR) minus crude death rate (CDR)
$500 – physiological density (must have both words to be considered correct. Students
need to understand that physiological density is different from arithmetic density
– which is the number of people divided by the total land area.)
Sundry
$100 – Africa
$200 – Stage 3
$300 – Stage 5
$400 – distance decay OR friction of distance (either answer is acceptable)
$500 – demographic momentum (the population of the country is young, and so even
though the country has achieved the replacement rate birthrate, the population
continues to grow while a majority of the population is in its prime childbearing
years)
Final Jeopardy
Please leave these answers for me to grade. Just remind students that they must have
their team numbers and the names of all team members on the answer sheet.
Please also record the score of the game going into the Final Jeopardy question.
As students finish, please give them a copy of the Jeopardy questions to use in
their studying.
