A graph that shows the age and sex distribution of a population at a specific time and place. It combines two charts, one for males and one for females, using a shared axis.

The population is typically divided into three categories: young (0-14 years), adult (15-64 years), and elder (65+ years).

The vertical axis displays age groups, usually in 5-year intervals. It highlights the age structure of the population.

Analyzing the shape of the pyramid reveals information about the population's age distribution and potential for future growth. A pyramid with a wide base indicates a young population, while a pyramid with a narrow base shows a more aged population.
