Explanation:

Population momentum refers to a situation, where a large cohort of women of reproductive age will fuel population growth over the next generation, even if each woman has fewer children than previous generations did.

‘Demographic dividend’: a falling dependency ratio can be a source of economic growth and prosperity due to the larger proportion of workers relative to non-workers.

Population pyramid: Group data in term of gender and age

Preventive checks: To voluntarily reduce the growth of its population (through ‘’ such as postponing marriage or practicing sexual abstinence or celibacy).
