C. There is a large number of young people.
D. There are more old people than young people.
Please select the best answer from the choices provided
The false statement about the population pyramid of Belize is 'There are more old people than young people' since a population pyramid typically shows a larger population for younger age groups, reducing as the age increases indicating fewer older people.
The population pyramid provided for Belize shows the distribution of different age groups in the population, separated by gender. From the given options, statement D: 'There are more old people than young people' is false. This because a population pyramid typically shows a larger population for younger age groups, reducing as the age increases indicating fewer older people. So options B and C, which indicate larger numbers of young people, are likely true. The number of males and females being approximately equal (Option A) is also typically expected in a normal population.
