A constrictive pyramid shows that the population consists disproportionately of middle-aged and older people.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A constrictive pyramid is also known as an "inverted" or "upside-down" pyramid, where the base (representing the younger population) is narrower than the top (representing the older population). This indicates a higher proportion of older people in the population compared to younger people. Therefore, the statement that the population consists disproportionately of middle-aged and older people is true.
