â€Geography Exam Guide‬ â€These will be the questions that will enter the exam:‬ †ap of Europe‬â€: I will give you a map of Europe where you will have to identify‬â€20 European countries‬ M â€and their capital‬â€.‬ †ap of Spanish provinces‬â€: I will give you a map of Spain where you will have to identify‬â€15 Spanish‬ M â€provinces‬â€.‬ â€Definitions‬â€: I will ask you to define a number of concepts‬â€which I will pick from this list‬â€:‬ â€-‬ †irth rate‬â€: it represents the number of births relative to the population of a place → it is‬ B â€expressed in per mille (‰). To obtain the birth rate → number of births/total population x‬ â€1000‬ â€-‬ â€Fertility rate‬â€: it represents the number of live births per women aged 15-49 → it is also‬ â€expressed in per mille (‰) To obtain the fertility rate → number of births/number of women‬ â€between 15-49 x 1000‬ â€-‬ â€Average number of children per woman‬â€: this information tells us if one generation can be‬ â€replaced by another. An average of 2,1 children per woman ensures that replacement.‬ â€-‬ â€Death rate‬â€: it represents the number of deaths relative to the population of a place → it is‬ â€expressed in per mille (‰). To obtain the death rate → number of deaths/total population x‬ â€1000‬ â€-‬ â€Infant mortality rate‬â€: it represents the number of babies who died before their first‬ â€birthday, to live births in a place → it is expressed in per mille (‰). To obtain the infant‬ â€mortality rate → number of deaths in children under 1 year/number of births x 1000‬ -†‬ â€Life expectancy‬â€: It expresses the average a person is expected to live, at birth.‬ â€-‬ â€Natural population growth‬â€: the difference between the absolute numbers of births and‬ â€deaths.‬ â€-‬ â€Net migration rate‬â€: The difference between people who come to live and work in a country‬ â€and people who permanently leave.‬ â€Long Answer‬â€: There will be‬â€1 long answer‬â€which I will pick from this list:‬ -†‬ †erritorial organisation in Spain‬ T â€-‬ â€Population registers in Spain‬ â€-‬ â€Distribution of the population in Spain‬ â€Test questions‬â€: 6 or 7 test questions from the rest of the unit‬ †opulation Pyramid‬â€:‬â€I will give you some data‬â€and I will ask you to‬â€draw a population pyramid‬ P â€with it. You will have to‬â€tell me which shape‬â€(triangular, pointed Arch/bell shaped, or Urn or‬ â€Bulb-shaped) it has and to‬â€which demographic model‬â€(old, transition, modern) it belongs.‬
