certain aspect, in this situation it would be
having chicken instead of beef.
Social media is contagious diffusion because
you see a post on one person's page, and
then you share it, and it keeps getting shared
and shared until it is a viral post, which
diffuses the idea around the region/world.

information about each pyramid - life expectancy, infant mortality rate, and dependency ratio. In
addition, give an example of a present day country for each population pyramid. (40 points possible)

The life expectancy for this type of period is

low. The infant mortality rate is high. The
dependency ratio is high because there are
more people that age, however the economic
activity is very low because of the lack of life
expectancy. Some examples of this would be
Namibia and Bangladesh.
 The life expectancy for this type of pyramid is
high. The infant mortality rate is low. The
dependency ratio is low because there is not a
lot of stress on the economic group. Some
examples of this would be Sweden and USA.

Part D - Define the following vocabulary terms…(15 points possible)

1) Lingua franca

mainly used for business. It is used by people whose first languages are different from each other
so they use the lingua franca to communicate. An example would be English which is used to
communicate with many people around the world that are working with US businesses.

Tobler’s First Law of Geography is everything is related to everything, but closer things are more
related than far things. An example would be that Atlanta and University of North Carolina are
related, but the University of Georgia is more closely related to Atlanta.

allowed to go into Mecca if you are not an Islam. At some point in every Islams it is mandatory thar
