showing the viability of population moving from one age to the next and
the mortality of the population at different ages. The Life table shows that
from an initial set of the births (on the same cohort), there will be how
many persons who will live to 1 year, 2 years,..., 100 years,...; among
them, there are how many persons at each of the certain ages who will be
dead before the following age; those persons who have reached a certain
age will have what probability of survival and death; how long is the life
expectancy in the future.

reading and writing of the population, serves to assess the development

and understand a simple sentence in the national language, ethnic or
foreign language) and the total population aged 15 years and over at that time.
