population studies: defining our terms

Define these terms, AND place a link to each term in your blog.  Wikipedia is actually a great source for this.  Then look up (in the CIA Factbook) each of the countries listed, and list the rank and actual figure.
  • life expectancy (Japan, France, Kenya, Cuba, United States, Afghanistan) 
  • crude birthrate  (Japan, Kenya, Ethiopia, United States,Germany)
  • crude death rate  (Afghanistan, Kenya, United States, Japan, Mexico)
  • RNI (rate of natural increase)
  • TFR (total fertility rate)  (Niger, Afghanistan, Japan, United States, Germany)
  • net migration rate  (Mexico, United States, United Arab Emirates, Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Uganda) 
  • population pyramid
If you don't finish it in class, finish it for homework.  When you're done, post it to your blog.  (After yesterday's test, I'm sure you see the value of having this on your blog!)
