Triangular age pyramid has high proportion of prereproductive individuals, moderate number of reproductive individuals and fewer post-reproductive individuals. It represents young or rapidly growing population. In urn-shaped age pyramid, the number of reproductive individuals is higher than the number of pre-reproductive individuals.
