    A Population is the number of people living together in the same place. Population helps us to get an estimate of the number of being and how to act accordingly. According to 2011 census data, the Burha Mayang village comprises a total household of 342 with a total population of 2174 persons. A random sample survey was done with a sample size of approximately 10 percent of total households. Accordingly, 29 households with 120 populations were surveyed.

The number of people of an area gives us an overall idea of the area. From the field survey conducted in Burha Mayang village it has been observed that there are total population of 120 according to raw data that we have collected during our household survey. We surveyed 29 households due to lack of time and necessary resources. The data so collected from the field survey was further processed and analysed using simple statistical methods and techniques. Finally, the resultant data are represented using simple bars, pie, etc.


The surveyed 29 household have total population of 120. The raw data depicts that number of males (63) in the study area is slightly more than the number of females (57). Similarly, variation in different components of population is also observed such as in age–sex composition, etc.

What is Plate Tectonic? Types of plate tectonics // Plate Margins or boundaries.

Plate tectonics  : The earth's crust is made up of several rigid and a solid plates. The term plate was first used by J. Tuzo Wilson, a Canadian geophysicist in 1965. Plate tectonic means the moment of plates. Classification of plates  : Plates can be classified into two groups, these are- 1. Major plates : a. Indian Plate, b. Pacific plate, c. American plate, d. African plate, e. Eurasian plate, f. Antarctica plate. 2. Minor plates : a, Arabian plate, b. Philippines plate, c. Cocos plate, d. Caribbean plate, e. Nazca plate, f. Scotia plate, g. Carolina plate, h. Juan de puca plate, I. Bismarck plate. Plate Margins : Plate margins or boundaries are most significant because all tectonic activity occur along the plate margins. Plate margins or boundaries are classified into three categories. These are- 1. Constructive or divergent plate boundary : divergent plate boundary in plate tectonic is a linear feature that exist between two plates that are moving away ...

What is glacier and what are the types of glacier? Geo Thinking

Glacier and its Types Glacier:    The moving ice mass downslope under the impact of gravity is called Glacier. About 10% of the Earth's surface is now covered by glaciers. About 2-3 million years BP glaciers extended over almost one third of the Earth's lithospheric surface. Glaciers are formed due to accumulation of ice above Snow Line under extreme cold climate. Snow Line is generally defined as a zone between permanent and seasonal snow. In fact snowline denotes that height above which there is permanent snow cover and thus it corresponds to the the level where average temperature is always below freezing point during the warmest month of the year. The snow line is at the lowest height ( 0 m or sea level ) in the Polar region and and increases equatorward where it tends to between 500 to 6000 m. The estimated number of all types of glaciers all over the world ranges between 70,000 and 200,000. The areas of accumulation huge volume of ice are called snow-fields which ...

What is folded mountain? Characteristics and types of folded mountains with examples. Geo Thinking.

Folded Mountains    Folded Mountains are formed due to folding of Crustal Rocks by compressive forces generated by endogenetic forces coming from within the earth. These are the highest and most extensive mountains of the world and found in all the continents. The distributional pattern of folded mountains over the globe denotes the fact that they are generally found along the margins of the continents either in north south direction or East West direction. Rockies, Andes, Himalayas etc. are the examples of folded mountains.    Folded Mountains are classified on various bases as follows.       1. Folded Mountains are divided into two broad categories on the basis of the nature of folds. (a) Simple folded mountains with open folds - Such Mountains are characterized by well developed system of anticlines and synclines where infolds are arranged in wave like pattern. (b) Complex folded mountains represent very complex structure of intensel...
