Population: what's an age/sex pyramid?

Easy. A graph that looks like a pyramid. Or sometimes not.

Watch this video.

It shows you about population pyramids for an MEDC and an LEDC.

An MEDC is a More Economically Developed Country and an LEDC is a Less Economically Developed Country.

This second video has a useful still of three 'pyramid' shapes side by side.

You could draw out an age/sex pyrmaid for many circumstances. Have a go at drawing out such a pyramid to represent the local home ed group, or better still, your clan of unicorns.
