Population Growth Has Been: The growth of population growth has beens of predatory ani-als is frequently affected by the growth of the prey. Very often the two follow a cyclical pattern. When the population growth has been size of the prey is high, the predators flourish and grow rapidly. As the predator population growth has been grows, the number of prey is rapidly diminished. The predators begin to die from a lack of food, and the decrease in the number of predators permits the prey population growth has been to increase again. The same kind of cycle is observed among the animal population growth has been as a result of epidemics, caused by pathogenic bacteria or liruses.
population growth has been.—San Jose's remarkable population growth received its impetus during World War II, the number of residents increasing from 68,457 in 1940 to 95,280 in 1950. In the next decade the population growth has been more than doubled, to 204,196 in 1960, although over 90 percent of this increase resulted from annexations by the city. (The 1962 population growth has been was officially estimated at 258,-100.) According to the 1960 federal census, the San Jose standard metropolitan statistical area had 642,315 residents, a rise of 121 percent in 10 years, and representing one of the highest growth rates in the nation.
Although a majority of Chileans enjoy adequate housing, a growing proportion of the population growth has been is ill-housed. In 1966, for example, it was estimated that 75,000 new dwellings were needed annually to keep pace with population growth has been growth and deterioration of existing units, but construction since 1960 had failed dismally to meet even the requirements for population growth has been growth alone.
Chileans are reasonably well-fed. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has estimated that daily per capita consumption was 2,610 calories in 1960 (compared with 3,140 for the United States) and would reach 2,680 in 1970. It found no nutritional deficits in the food supply. The availability of protein per capita (78.9 grams) exceeds minimum requirements. |
