(v) Demography : Studies the various parts of populace like rate of birth, demise rate, age piece. It additionally manages the financial piece of the populace and sex creation. 

(vi) Settlement Geography : It learns about the size, structure and capacity of settlement of individuals and characterize their memorable development.
