If a population pyramid has both a broad base and a broad middle, which situation is possible?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Both child and working-age groups are large

The base of a population pyramid represents the youngest age groups, while the middle generally represents adults and people of working age. A broad base therefore suggests that many children are present, often because fertility has been relatively high. A broad middle suggests that the adult or working-age population is also large.

When both sections are broad, the country can have large numbers of children as well as adults. This may result from past high fertility, population momentum, or several large cohorts moving upward through the age structure. It does not indicate that only older people are numerous, that fertility is zero, or that workers are absent. Thus, option A is the possible situation shown by the pyramid.
