AURORKA [14]

The factors that accounted for the population growth are birth date, death rate, immigration, and emigration.

The following information should be considered:

The birth date deals with the no of babies born at the particular time period. If there is an increase in the birth rate, so the population should increase and vice versa.
The death rate deals with the no of deaths during a particular time period. If the death rate is increased so the population should decrease and vice versa.
Immigration deals with the movement of the people are in the place. If immigration is increased so the population should be high.
Emigration means the movement of the people that are out of the place. If it is increased so the population is decreased.

Therefore we can conclude that the factors that accounted for the population growth are birth date, death rate, immigration, and emigration.

Dmitrij [34]

In general, what are the himalayan mountains composed of: folded and bent rock.

The geology of the Himalayas is a record of the most dramatic and visible creations of the immense mountain range formed by plate tectonic forces and sculpted by weathering and erosion.
The Himalayas, which stretch over 2400 km between the Namcha Barwa syntaxis at the eastern end of the mountain range and the Nanga Parbat syntaxis at the western end, are the result of an ongoing orogeny — the collision of the continental crust of two tectonic plates, namely, the Indian Plate thrusting into the Eurasian Plate.
The Himalaya-Tibet region supplies fresh water for more than one-fifth of the world population, and accounts for a quarter of the global sedimentary budget.
