Study the three different pictures of population pyramid given below and answer the following question. (Q2)

Which of the following age category represents ageing population?

60 and above 65 and above 70 and above 59 and above

60 and above

Age structure represents the number of people of different age groups. This is an important indicator of population composition, since a large size of population in the age group of 15- 59 indicates a large working population. A greater proportion of population above 60 years represents an ageing population which requires more expenditure on health care facilities.
