A country with a large percentage of people younger than age 15 will experience rapid population growth unless death rates rise sharply, even if women each have an average of only one or two children because of the large number of girls entering their prime reproductive years. Therefore, the amount of younger girls will affect population growth. In contrast, older females do not reproduce.
