Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fecundity refers to the biological ability of a woman to bear children, regardless of whether or not she actually does. It is different from fertility, which refers to the actual number of children a woman has given birth to, and from crude birth rate, which measures the number of births per 1,000 people in a population. The population pyramid is a graphical representation of a population's age and gender distribution.
